Stoke City - Preston North End betting tips and odds

Stoke City are easily the favourites in the match this Monday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 2.06 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Preston North End may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

It would be a minor miracle for Preston North End to win at Stoke City, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.00 price on most online sportsbooks.

The home defeat Stoke suffered last round was quite unexpected if the 1.87 betting odds were any indication. Despite being seen as the stronger team and playing at home, their opponents Derby County dominated the proceedings, narrowly winning in the end.

Preston took home a single point after their previous away game. However, if we take into account the overwhelming odds they were up against in that matchup against West Bromwich Albion, the final : draw seems like a fairly solid performance.

If there’s one thing to note about the history of this matchup, it’s a fact their matches tend to end in a draw. Several matches this season ended inconclusively, so it neems neither team is able to reliably tip the scales one way or another.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Monday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

Though a Home Win bet is the best offer in terms of value, the outcome is far from guaranteed. Though there’s a moderate risk involved, the 2.06 odds offered at Bet-At-Home are worth it.
