Preston Fancied, But Still Ordinary Boys

In an unusual twist we’re backing the Premier League team to win against lower league opponents, as an underdog at Deepdale.

Norwich are 11/5 with Coral to win as the bookies write-off a struggling top flight team presumably in anticipation of a much-changed line-up. That may well be true, but Preston have just as much reason to prioritize the Championship, still just two points off the playoff spots.

 
Besides which, the hosts are on poor form themselves. Preston are winless in four matches, losing 2-0 twice in a row at home this past week, to average opponents.
