Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 1. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Preston North End with their four defeats in a row.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Preston North End as they have a new game in only four days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Luton Town are visiting.
