Preston North End, Recent FormPreston North End boss Ryan Lowe will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 4-1 away mauling from Sheffield United. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 10 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Sheffield United, who had 19 shots on goal with 10 on target.
Lowe is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 8 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have been performing well at Deepdale recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
Tom Cannon will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Preston North End.
Sunderland, Recent FormSunderland had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 2-2 draw against Watford. They came away from that fixture with a 70% share of the possession and clocked up 25 attempts on goal with 7 on target, in comparison to Watford, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Tony Mowbray will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 12 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have lost 9 goals during those same matches. They've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 away games, and this season they have scored in 19 of their 22 games played on the road.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 8 games in a row.
The Sunderland travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Ross Stewart, who's scored 5 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
With at least 1 goal in each of their last 4 away matches against Preston in the league, The Black Cats have built a decent scoring record that they will be keen to extend. On each of the last 2 outings between Sunderland and Preston in the league, The Black Cats have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. We have seen plenty of goals from The Lilywhites when they play at home against Sunderland. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 9 goals, which is an average of 3 goals per game.
Sunderland has had a poor run of results against Preston having not won any of their last 6 meetings.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Preston manager Ryan Lowe with Alan Browne (Medial Collateral Ligament), Greg Cunningham (Knee) and Emil Riis (Cruciate ligament) all unavailable for selection, and Ched Evans (Illness) out for the rest of the season.
With both Ajibola Alese (Thigh) and Ross Stewart (Achilles tendon) being out for the rest of the season and Daniel Ballard (Hamstring), Danny Batth (Knee), Jewison Bennette (Shoulder), Elliot Embleton (Broken ankle), Corry Evans (Cruciate ligament) and Niall Huggins (Hamstring) all unavailable in the shorter term, Sunderland manager Tony Mowbray will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
