Prediction

  • Swansea were outshot 18-5 by an impressive Middlesbrough side last weekend as they suffered a 1-0 defeat at the Riverside.
  • Luke Williams' side responded well in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night though, easing to a 3-1 victory against League Two Gillingham, and they now go in search of their first league win.
  • Tensions between Ryan Lowe and the Preston fans were running high heading into the campaign, and a concerning display against Sheffield United on the opening weekend was all that it took for the board to call time on his spell in charge.
  • That change sparked an instant response, with the managerless visitors beating Sunderland 2-0 in cup action in midweek.

    Interesting game this one with the potential to be the highest scoring game of the day. Both will want at least a point on the board by the end. 2-2 draw
