Preston to win it
Swansea have been on a horrid run of form of late. Admittedly, the haven't played loads of games but still, they haven't tasted what a win since back in November and have managed to draw just two of the games played in the period since then; all told, it means they're winless in five. Preston, however, are unbeaten in their past five games having won two and drawn three. That gives them the edge heading into this clash and the head to head record makes it clear that we should be backing Preston to win it; they've won the last two meetings between the sides.
Both teams will score
Our next prediction for this match is that both teams will score; it's based heavily on the recent goal scoring form of both teams combined with defences that don't seem to know what clean sheets are. Swansea have conceded in each of their past five games scoring in four of them whilst Preston have seen goals for both teams in each of their last five. Three of the last five head to head matches have seen both Swansea and Preston amongst the goals too.

Swansea vs Preston: It's predicted lineup time
This is a mid table clash, which will almost definitely be a Championship tie again next year with the prospect of relegation or the playoffs basically dead for both of them. Still, after both have gone a few games without a win, their fans could do with something to cheer.
Swansea Predicted Lineup
This was supposed to be the year we saw a return of the free flowing Swansea that could dominate and win games. It hasn't happened. There have been glimpses of progress though so games like this will be useful as they prepare to kick on next season.
Predicted lineup – Hamer, Cabango, Naughton, Manning, Christie, Downes, Grimes, Latibeaudiere, Smith, Piroe, Obafemi
Preston Predicted Lineup
Preston aren't unfamiliar with mid table territory in the Championship but, whilst realistic views see them stay there, the club will be thinking a streak of wins will put them in the playoff race. If they're to do that, they can't afford to lose games like this.
Predicted lineup – Iversen, Bauer, van den Berg, Cunningham, Potts, Whiteman, Browne, Barkhuizen, Johnson, Riis, Sinclair
