Bristol City to Keep Up Winning Home Run

Bristol City have never been in the Premier League, but Liam Manning has given the Robins a real chance. City will secure a play-off spot with any kind of victory over Preston on Saturday. If they get the job done, Manning’s side will play Sunderland over two legs.

Preston are in freefall, suffering four consecutive defeats and failing to win in seven league games. Paul Heckingbottom’s Lilywhites head into the final day just a point above 22^nd-place Hull City after taking just two points from the last 21 on offer.

Bristol City have lost two on the trot, suffering away defeats at Luton Town and Leeds United, conceding seven and scoring just one. Nevertheless, their record at Ashton Gate this term has been superb.

Only the top three have picked up more home points than City. The hosts have won four in a row at home, while the visitors have not won on the road since February.
