Preston North End vs Millwall Prediction: Preston are on a three game losing run in the league.

Preston North End will welcome Millwall at Deepdale Stadium in Game Week 12 of the English Championship. Preston are on a three game losing run in the league. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Preston North End form

Ryan Lowe would have been optimistic about his team's chances of being in the automatic promotion places after a successful winning streak. However, Preston have experienced a downturn in form, losing three consecutive matches and conceding 11 goals in the process. This includes defeats to direct rivals West Bromwich Albion and Leicester City. Despite a more spirited performance against Ipswich Town, Preston still suffered a 4-2 defeat. The international break may have come at the right time for Lowe, but the pressure is mounting on Preston to start winning again. They are currently only three points away from 10th position. Lowe is hopeful that Andrew Hughes and Jack Whatmough will be available for selection after recovering from their injuries before the international break. However, Ali McCann remains sidelined. Preston will likely see the inclusion of Ben Whiteman, Duane Holmes, and Liam Millar in their lineup after being rested for the Ipswich game. Will Keane is a potential replacement for Milutin Osmajic in the center of the attack. 

Preston North End Predicted Lineup

The possible starting lineup for Preston North End consists of Woodman, Bauer, Lindsay, Cunningham, Potts, Whiteman, Ledson, Millar, Holmes, Frokjaer-Jensen, and Keane.

Millwall form

On the other hand, Millwall's situation is uncertain after parting ways with their manager. Despite a decent run of form before the break, the decision for the club and the manager to separate has been made. Assistant manager Adam Barrett will be in charge for this fixture, and although there is speculation about a replacement, Barrett's focus must be on the immediate future. A win in this match could potentially put Millwall in the promotion mix. Despite Rowett's dismissal, Barrett might opt for a similar Millwall starting XI to the one used in the Hull fixture. Brooke Norton-Cuffy is a possibility to return at right-back, and George Saville could replace Allan Campbell in midfield. Tom Bradshaw is expected to feature in the attack due to Kevin Nisbet's injury. 

Millwall Predicted Lineup

The potential starting lineup for Millwall includes Bialkowski, Norton-Cuffy, Harding, Cooper, Bryan, Leonard, De Norre, Campbell, Flemming, Watmore, and Bradshaw. 

Preston North End vs Millwall Expert Tips

 Given Preston's recent dip in form and Rowett's unexpected departure from Millwall, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding this match. A low-scoring draw between two evenly-matched teams seems likely and would probably be an acceptable outcome for both sides. However, taking a double chance on the away side will give you the best odds. We forsee under 2.5 goals in the game overall.
