Championship betting, previews and odds as Blackburn welcome Preston to Ewood Park on Saturday afternoon.
Preston 3.6013/5 are only outside of the play-off places on goal difference with Ryan Lowe's charges also overachieving according to the underlying metrics. Blackburn 2.305/4 have been one of the Championship's chief overperformers. The Lilywhites are also talking to the likes of Ryan Ledson, Liam Lindsay, Greg Cunningham and Daniel Johnson, who all see their contracts expire in 2023 with renewals potentially on the menu. Nevertheless, the hosts have posted W8-D0-L2 at Ewood Park. Preston suffered a 4-2 defeat to Millwall in their final encounter before the World Cup break. We haven't had a full post-match with the group, but I've spoken with a lot of the players and players have been very open that it wasn't good enough."
Blackburn could climb into the automatic promotion places for at least a few hours as the Championship resumes. Advertisement.
