A total of nine sets of fixtures are played and both Leicester City and Preston North End are up there with the best. Let's go!
- Leicester City have the fewest conceded goals (6) in Championship
- Preston North End have not yet lost a game away.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Leicester City form and stats
Leicester City have collected 9 points from their Championship home games so far after 3-0-1. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Leicester City has won four games in a row. The Hull City match was the last time out without a victory.
Leicester City enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Blackburn Rovers's place. The match ended 4-1 with Iheanacho, Faes, Dewsbury-Hall and Vardy scoring. Dewsbury-Hall (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.11/10. Dewsbury-Hall scored one goal, hit one key pass and had 37 successful passes (of 43 total).
Before that, a defeat in the away fixture against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Leicester, as the Championship home game vs Stoke City is only three days away.
Leicester City are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. From these home matches, Leicester City have conceded only 3 goals.
Preston North End form and stats
As the visiting team in Championship matches, Preston North End have produced an overall stat of 2-2-0 so far.
The manager Lowe was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue Deepdale. Preston suffered a 0-4 loss to West Bromwich Albion (placed 8th). Until that loss this side had taken at least one point from eight league matches in a row. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against West Bromwich Albion was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.
Before that, Preston North End travelled to Rotherham United and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.The schedule is very tough for Preston North End now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Championship game at Ipswich Town is waiting in only three days.
The visiting Preston have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 5 goals from 4 games. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - two - four (Leicester City wins - draws - Preston North End wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven had two or less.
