Preston vs Luton Prediction
Preston Form
Showing inconsistent form, Preston lost two of their past three matches, going down 0-2 against Sheffield United, before beating Sunderland 2-0. The joy was short-lived, as Swansea proved too strong in a 3-0 defeat. Preston claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Championship. They also drew zero and lost four, scored eight goals and conceded nine.
Anything lower than at least a second place finish would probably be considered a disappointment for Luton, as they look to build a title challenge.
Luton Form
A single draw prevents Luton from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They came up short, losing by 2-4 and 1-4 against Fulham and Burnley, respectively. Their latest match brought some consolation, as they were able to hang on for a 0-0 draw against Portsmouth. In their last six away matches in the Championship, Luton won twice, while also recording three draws. They endured one defeat in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying ten goals conceded and 12 scored.
Anything lower than at least a second place finish would probably be considered a disappointment for Luton, as they look to build a title challenge.
Preston suffered too many defeats lately to argue against the away win for Luton, who simply seem to have more quality right now.
