Team News

Preston
WBA
  • Ryan Lowe could make just one change to the side that faced Rotherham at the New York Stadium with Ben Whiteman returning in central midfield in place of Ali McCann.
  • The Lilywhites will once again be without four first-team players when West Brom visit Deepdale on Saturday.
  • Carlos Corberan rotated heavily for the visit of Millwall last time out and should revert to a more familiar starting XI when his side travels to Deepdale on Saturday.
  • Erik Pieters picked up a muscle injury in the goalless draw against Millwall and will be sidelined for at least the next three weeks.

Prediction

  • Preston lost their grip on top spot in the Championship last weekend when they failed to beat a 23rd-placed Rotherham side that attempted just three shots in the entire game. The Lilwyhites have now slipped to third in the standings, but remain the division's only unbeaten side.
  • West Brom's uninspiring start to the campaign continued without signs of improvement last weekend. The Midlands-based club drew 0-0 at home against fellow mid-table dwellers Millwall, failing to convert any of their 16 attempts in front of a frustrated Hawthorns crowd.
