The 1-0 away defeat to Queens Park Rangers will not have sat easily with the Preston North End squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They came away from that fixture with 53% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Queens Park Rangers managed 18 attempts on goal, with 7 on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 4 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded a goal in 19 of their 22 games at home this season.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Milutin Osmajić will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Preston North End.

Enzo Maresca 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 conceded 5 goals during those same matches. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Jamie Vardy will be hoping to create problems for Preston North End in this one, having scored 3 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Leicester City.
Preston North End vs. Leicester City Head to head
After a good 3-0 win for Leicester City in this pair's last league encounter, Preston North End will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
The Preston defence has struggled against The Foxes in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 5 games.
In the league, Preston has had a poor run at home against Leicester, being unable to secure a win from any of their last 6 meetings at Deepdale.
With only Brad Potts (Knock) and Ben Whiteman (Leg) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Ryan Lowe will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
