They’ve ridden their luck a bit (more-so than us I’d say) The difference is that Hull had some kind of goal threat. A lot of Preston's games have an XG of less than 0.5 for North End. They are most definitely a safety first team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 1 October 2023 Share Posted 1 October 2023 Expected 11 behind the ball from PNE. Danish lad however is a good signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVIE B Posted 1 October 2023 Share Posted 1 October 2023 Most teams that visit us will park the bus, low block, depriving us of any space in behind. Is it possibly better to have Vardy coming on for the last 25 if needed ? Save him for the away games, in the main. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourbon Fox Posted 1 October 2023 Share Posted 1 October 2023 If we can keep it tidy at the back and not throw them a goal, I'll back us to break through and score. Fatawu looked good today, Mavididi is consistently dangerous, Yunus looks promising - even without MacAteer I think we'll have enough. Another late goal, 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had some of the easier fixtures to start the season with, but you still have to deliver. Last 2 results not great for them and they were walloped yesterday. I personally think they are going to park the bus and this will be a little bit like the Hull game. It won't be the toughest game in my opinion - its going to feel like one of those annoying games where we need to break them down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have a huge amount of possession and lots of shots, just need to convert 1 or 2... Which we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d expect to see a few changes in all of the midweek games. We’ve got good squad depth and Enzo isn’t afraid to use it. I think Coady, Hamza, Akgun and Kel all come in at a minimum. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allied to which they've hit the wall (already), couldn't win at Rotherham (2nd bottom and only pt in the last 12) AND tanked at home by Albion. BUT as for every slightly tough game this season, a dirty 1-0 will do for me. And so far NOBODY in the League has scored more than 2 goals against us in the League.

StriderHiryu Posted 2 October 2023 Share Posted 2 October 2023 For a team that had such a great defensive record, they sure did make a few blunders in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolucklcfc Posted 2 October 2023 Share Posted 2 October 2023 I know we won 1-4 and it looked easy but Blackburn have caused us the most problems this season I’d say. Maybe cov, Preston will do what every team will do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes very similar runs to Vardy, so would be great to see how he does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
