We are off to Deepdale on Tuesday night, where Preston North End will be playing host to Birmingham City in the EFL Championship. The Lilywhites and the Blues are eighth and 17th in the league standings, respectively, after 10 games. Let’s get into the match prediction!

After avoiding the drop by the skin of their teeth last season, Preston have made a much more promising start to this campaign, taking 16 points from their first 10 matches (W4 D4 L2).

However, PNE will be looking to bounce back to winning ways here after seeing their six-match unbeaten run brought to an end by West Brom (2-1) on the road at the weekend.

The hosts have yet to lose a league match at Deepdale this season (W3 D2) and have kept clean sheets in three of their last four such games at this venue.

Meanwhile, Birmingham City will be fairly content with the start they’ve made to life back in the Championship, now on 12 points (W3 D3 L4), four above the drop zone.

However, pressure to get back to winning ways is starting to mount, as they are now winless in their last four league games (D2 L2) following their 3-2 defeat to Hull City on Saturday night.

The visitors are also winless in their last four away league games and failed to score in three of those matches.

Our Preston North End vs Birmingham Prediction

While Preston were unable to keep their unbeaten league run going over the weekend against West Brom, they have been impressive at home this season, still unbeaten after five games at Deepdale.

Given that stat, combined with the fact that their upcoming opponents have failed to win any of their last four away games and failed to score in three of those matches, it is a little surprising to see Birmingham installed as fairly firm favourites here. Our Preston North End vs Birmingham prediction is Preston North End wins or X.
