THE PREDICTION
Stoke are set for a third successive home league fixture as they welcome Preston to the Bet365 Stadium. The visitors have not featured in the Championship since December 11th, Ryan Lowe’s first game in charge and whilst all the extra time on the training ground will have proven a benefit, his squad was hit hard by an outbreak of Covid-19 and their match fitness must be called into question with it being so long since they were last in action. The Stoke players are expected to be fresher and sharper particularly early on this match, which may wind up a decisive factor when considering how strong their squad is. Combine that with an expected determined reaction from the Potters following their defeat at home to Derby last time out and a victory for Michael O’Neill’s men via the safety of the draw no bet market is to be backed.
