Bet on Preston vs MillwallCan Millwall Extend Their Unbeaten Run Over Preston?
Paul Heckingbottom has done a good job at Deepdale since taking over, lifting North End away from the danger zone. Preston have lost just one Championship game since a New Year’s Day defeat at West Bromwich Albion.
Alex Neil made a slow start to life as Millwall boss, but the Scot has found his feet at The Den. The Lions recently won four league and cup games in a row, although they were hammered 5-1 at Plymouth Argyle in their last away match. The Londoners responded with a 1-1 home draw with West Brom.
Both teams want to finish in the top half of the Championship table. Millwall sit 14th after ten wins, 11 draws, and 11 defeats. Preston are level on points having won nine, drawn 14, and lost nine. However, the Lions have a slightly better goal difference.
With the game taking place at Deepdale, Preston are the favourites. Nevertheless, Millwall have won three of their last four away from home and will fancy their chances of picking up a positive result in Lancashire.
