We’re Expecting a Big Whites Win

We really like Leeds at odds of 2.00 on the Asian Handicap where they’re giving up -1.75. Stakes are split between -1.5 and -2.0 against Preston and we’re expecting a big victory.

1-1 Draw in Last H2H

Leeds United got the win in their last game. It was a 1-0 away triumph at Riverside Stadium when meeting Middlesbrough. Daniel Farke's team enjoyed 47% possession and had three shots on target, with Daniel James netting the winner shortly after kick-off.

Preston North End drew 2-2 in their previous game. This was at home at Deepdale against Cardiff City. The Lilywhites had 49% of possession and four shots on goal, while Milutin Osmajic and Stefan Thordarson were on the scoresheet.

It was a 1-1 draw when Preston and Leeds last clashed, with the former hosting this head-to-head at Deepdale. In the 6 previous H2H games, there have been three draws, two Leeds wins and a victory for Preston.
