West Bromwich Albion - Preston North End predictions

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Preston North End are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, West Bromwich Albion should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

The visitors would need to pull off quite a stunt in order to come out victorious. They are severely outmatched in this outing – the 4.72 away win odds alone should speak volumes.

WBA are looking to get back to winning ways following a difficult Championship trip. They were up against a strong rival but held well away from home. Level after 45 minutes, they managed to preserve a point in what ended up being a Sheffield United.

Preston North End’s previous Championship match saw them play top of their game. They were considered somewhat weaker than their opponents Sheffield Wednesday, so the lead in the first half was unexpected. Preston North End then proceeded to decisively win the match 3:1.

With over 5 goals over their past 3 home games, WBA is not a team you want to meet at home. They’ll be looking to extend this trend as much as possible, so Preston North End will need to be careful.

Preston have not recorded a goalless game for the last 7 rounds, and it’s very likely that the trend will continue.

This matchup has been consistently ending in a draw throughout the current season. WBA played against Preston North End on several occasions in multiple different competitions, and never managed to gain the upper hand despite being considered favourites.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 3.41 with Pncl, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
