Struggling Luton Town will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Preston North End in the upcoming league round. It's 23rd vs 6th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Preston North End form and stats

5 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses. That’s the product of Preston North End playing as the away team in the Championship this season. It's a growing despair in Preston North End as they have recorded three consecutive losses. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Preston North End are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

The manager A. Neil was unhappy after their last game, a Championship match played at their home ground Deepdale. Preston North End suffered a 1-3 loss to Queens Park Rangers (placed 13th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Fulham wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.

After this away game Preston North End return home for a Championship game against Cardiff City. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The attacking power of Preston North End when travelling is not overwhelming with 15 goals scored from 18 league matches away. As opposed to that, Preston North End have seen the ball go into their own net 21 times on the road.
