Sunderland will be looking to keep their momentum in their charge for promotion when they host Preston on Tuesday. The Black Cats are fourth in the Championship standings, while their visitors are 16th. Below is our prediction for the match.
After two straight defeats threatened to derail their top six ambitions, Sunderland have roared back with two straight wins. They are coming from a 2-1 win at home to Cardiff right after their win at Sheffield Wednesday.
The next frontier for the hosts is to improve their home form, which has lately been inconsistent. In the last six home games in all competitions, they managed just two wins.
Preston are coming from facing one promotion chaser to another. The Lilywhites are set for a second straight away match after falling 1-0 at Sheffield United.
That marked their second straight match without scoring. Meanwhile, they only managed one win in the last six matches and it happened to be an FA Cup game.
In the Championship, Paul Heckingbottom’s men have just three wins in 12 matches. This run has left them 11 points above the relegation region and 12 below the top six with 10 matches remaining.
In the reverse meeting with Sunderland, a 0-0 draw set them unbeaten in two matches against the Black Cats.

Our Sunderland vs Preston North End Prediction
Sunderland have picked up again after two consecutive losses threatened to derail their season. They come into this game off two straight wins and with a good record at home in the league. Having not lost to Preston the last two times they hosted this match will build their confidence.
Preston, on the other hand, are enduring a poor run in the league, winless in the last five matches. They’ve also lost three of the last four league games. Our prediction for Sunderland v Preston is that Sunderland wins the match.
