Team News

Preston
Coventry
  • Milutin Osmajic serves the second instalment of an eight-match ban, while Ben Whiteman has accumulated five yellow cards for the season.
  • Elsewhere, Will Keane, Patrick Bauer and Ched Evans have all been ruled out due to injury problems.
  • Left-back Jake Bidwell suffered a knee injury during the 2-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday, so expect Jay Dasilva to start on Saturday.
  • No further changes are expected from Mark Robins ahead of the trip to Deepdale.

Prediction

  • Preston's strong defensive unit proved impenetrable for promotion-chasing Burnley last time out as the two sides played out a goalless draw at Turf Moor.
  • The Lilywhites have taken seven points from the last nine available at Deepdale, but their overall form has been nothing to celebrate.
  • Coventry are in a similarly precarious position to their hosts and head into gameweek 10 one spot behind them in the standings.
  • The Sky Blues conceded in stoppage time of each half in their last league outing as they were beaten 2-1 at home by Sheffield Wednesday.
