West Bromwich Albion - Preston North End predictions

Kickoff starts at 12:30 on 04/05/2024 played @ The Hawthorns refereed by Steve Martin

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.53 is a solid option. That said, Preston North End may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

From the current viewpoint, the situation is unambiguous. Considering the strength of West Bromwich Albion and the 6.86 odds given to Preston North End to win, it is easy to see that a win for the visiting team would be a remarkable upset.

The Baggies’s performance in their previous away game left a lot to be desired. Some early concessions snowballed into a crushing 3:0 defeat at the hands of Sheffield Wednesday .

The visiting team are coming on the back of an HT/FT defeat in their most recent home game, which was painful but quite expected. As a point of reference, top online bookmakers priced their victory at no less than 1.58, indicating they never had much of a shot in the first place.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

With 7 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, Preston North End's backline has much to be wished for

The two teams already met this season in the Championship, with The Baggies taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

On Saturday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.00, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
