Preston won't lose heavily
To be fair, Wolverhampton Wanderers play in a higher tier than their visitors; while Wolves are a Premier League side, Preston North End play in the Championship. However, we would like to point out that these teams are on opposite sides when it comes to form. Wolverhampton Wanderers have no wins in their last five matches, a run that stretches back to their pre-season friendlies; in contrast, Preston North End are unbeaten in their last six matches. Considering Wolverhampton's recent struggles, we don't think they can win this match by more than one goal.
Goals will likely be in short supply
Preston North End have had the best defence in the Championship so far this season; they have not conceded a single goal in five league games. Because of their stingy defence, Preston's matches usually don't feature plenty of goals; they've played six matches this season, and five of them went under 1.5. I'm fact, four of Preston's six games this season ended goalless. In the same vein, we should point out that Wolverhampton have scored just one goal in three league games this season; and on that note, we shouldn't expect too many goals in this game.
