Key Betting Tips: Preston win @ 2.1 odds on BoyleSports
Preston Predicted Lineup: Daniel Iversen, Andrew Hughes, Liam Lindsay, Jordan Storey, Thierry Small, Harrison Armstrong, Benjamin Whiteman, Alfie Devine, Odeluga Offiah, Milutin Osmajic, Lewis Dobbin
Swansea Predicted Lineup: Lawrence Vigouroux, Josh Tymon, Cameron Burgess, Ben Cabango, Josh Key, Ji-sung Eom, Ethan Galbraith, Marko Stamenic, Malick Yalcouye, Ronald, Adam Idah
Preston find themselves in the Playoff places going into this one, with back-to-back wins sending them up to sixth. They hold one of the best defensive records in the Championship so far, so breaking them down will be a tough task.
Swansea can’t seem to find form at the moment and are sat down in 16th, though relegation doesn’t really feel like an imminent threat to them. We are currently yet to hear about the extent of Zan Vipotnik’s quad injury, but if he comes back into the squad soon then there is hope for the Swans on the attack.

Football Park's Best Bet: Preston win @ 2.1 - Football Park's advanced prediction model says this is the best value bet.
Harrison Armstrong (Preston): The 18-year old has impressed for North End this season, with head coach Paul Heckinbottom calling him “an old head on young shoulders” after their victory against Southampton. On loan from Everton for the season, he’ll be one to watch in the middle of the park.
Adam Idah (Swansea): The Irish striker hasn’t quite lived up to his potential just yet, but Zan Vipotnik’s injury means he now has the chance to make his mark as a Swansea starter. He scored his first open play goal last time out against Charlton, and will no doubt be looking to increase his tally at Preston.
