Bitesize Prediction: Preston vs West Brom – 30/09/23

Competition: Championship

Market: Preston draw no bet

Odds: 8/11 @ BetUS

Looking to extend on their remarkable Championship romp, Preston will welcome West Brom to Deepdale on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, shocking many last season as they clinched a top-half finish, the Lilywhites are enjoying another remarkable Championship romp this time around. While Ryan Lowe’s men might have been last seen having to settle for a 1-1 stalemate away at Rotherham, the Lancashire-based outfit certainly find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Marking their return from September’s international break with a 2-1 win at home against Plymouth, the one-time Bury boss has seen his side gain a string of plaudits. Opening this weekend’s fixtures sat third in the table and just a single point adrift of breaking into the automatic promotion places, Preston will be desperate to lay down another marker here. Mustering 20 points from just their first eight Championship appearances, Lowe’s high-flying squad have also gained a reputation for their continued success at Deepdale. Last seen in front of their own supporters landing a 2-1 victory against Birmingham, Saturday’s hosts have won each of their opening four home fixtures by an aggregate score of 8-4.

As for the visitors, while West Brom might have opened the new campaign with their sights set on mounting a genuine promotion charge, the Baggies are struggling to find any kind of stability. Last seen putting in another downbeat display as they had to settle for a 0-0 stalemate at home against Millwall, Carlos Corberan’s men open this weekend’s fixtures sat in the bottom-half of the Championship table. In fact, playing out a draw in each of their previous four second-tier appearances, the former Huddersfield boss will have a continued headache over his side’s extended issues on the road. Along with getting the 2023/24 campaign underway with a 2-1 loss against Blackburn on August 5th, West Brom have remarkably won just a pair of their previous 14 Championship away fixtures continuing on from last season. Likewise, hit with a 1-0 defeat when they last travelled to Deepdale 11 months ago, we are backing a home draw no bet on Saturday afternoon.
