Preston North End form and stats

Last season, Preston North End's league statistics were 18 wins, 7 draws and 21 losses, resulting in a 13th position in the Championship. Over these 46 matches they scored 49 goals and conceded 56. Playing at home last season Preston North End managed 7-5-11 (win-draw-lost) with 21 goals and 24 conceded.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Preston have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won four, drawn one and lost nine.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Preston as they are travelling to their away game against Mansfield Town in the Carabao Cup. That match is three days after this one.

It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Preston North End, who have participated in seven training matches. Preston North End have won 2 of these, drawn 2 and were beaten in 3 games.

Hull City form and stats

A job perfectly done for Hull last season as they secured promotion from League One. With a grand total of 27 wins, 8 draws and 11 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 13 were in away matches.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Hull City playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were four Hull City wins, two draws and four defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Hull are hosting Wigan Athletic in the Carabao Cup only three days away.

It's a day of discovery for Hull City as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Hull City have played three with the results W1-D0-L2 (win-draw-lost). In these games Hull has scored 3 goals and conceded 4 times.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - two - four (Preston North End wins - draws - Hull City wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
