Today's Betting Tips for Stoke vs Preston

Preston have limped to three successive defeats in the Championship ahead of their trip to play Stoke on Monday afternoon. Read our top predictions for this week’s fixture below.

Stoke to Win

Stoke lost narrowly to leaders Burnley (0-1) in their last assignment in a game of few chances, though Alex Neil’s Potters were unbeaten in three games before that and they could bounce back at the first time of asking against an out-of-form Preston side on Monday. North End have lost each of their last three matches in the Championship and with their form slumping, Stoke will feel they are meeting them at a good time. With that in mind, we recommend siding with City in this one.

Over 2.5 Goals

Stoke’s fixtures since the campaign’s restart have been high-octane in the main and three of their last four games in the Championship have featured at least three goals. We expect Alex Neil to send his troops out to attack on Monday against a Preston side in the grip of a slump and an open contest at the bet365 Stadium could ensue as a consequence. Over 2.5 goals rattled the net when the teams last met at that venue and we’re tipping history to repeat itself this week.

Stoke vs Preston Team News & Injuries

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Monday’s Championship tussle between Norwich and Watford below.

Stoke

Stoke will be without Sam Clucas in midfield on Monday, though Josh Laurent is back in contention having completed his comeback from injury off the bench against Burnley last time out. The Potters are still down in 17th spot, though their performances are on the up and they should climb the standing soon.

Predicted Lineup for Stoke: Bonham – Souttar, Jagielka, Fox – Brown, Baker, Thompson, Smallbone, Tymon – Delap, Campbell

Preston

Robert Brady is still out with a muscle worry for Preston, while attacker and fellow Republic of Ireland international Troy Parrott has a hamstring complaint and won't be available on Monday. Preston dropped down to 15th position following their latest defeat at West Brom (2-0) on Thursday.

Predicted Lineup for Preston: Woodman – Storey, Lindsay, Cunningham – Potts, Whiteman, Ledson, Fernandez – Johnson, Woodburn – Evans

Player to Watch – Jordan Thompson

Stoke’s 0-1 loss at home to Burnley during the week was frustrating, though Jordan Thompson put in a decent shift in midfield and the 25-year-old anchorman should draw confidence from a strong performance against the league leaders. The Northern Ireland international is a midfield mainstay for the Potters and he could be key to their success against Preston on Monday.
