Harrogate Town vs Preston North End Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Nella Wagah in Carabao Cup Predictions
Fourth division side Harrogate Town will be eyeing an upset when they host Preston North End in the League Cup second round. The two meet on Tuesday with odds stacked against the hosts. Here’s our preview and prediction of the match.
Harrogate Town’s recent seasons have registered marginal improvement and they will target the headlines when they welcome Championship side Preston. The League Two side didn’t have a dream start to the season, losing 2-0 at home to Bromley.
That defeat, however, didn’t define their subsequent matches as three games later, they haven't lost a second. With two wins in those three matches, Harrogate will be confident when facing a much superior opponent.
In their most recent game they grabbed their first clean sheet of the season, beating Colchester United 1-0.
Preston haven't had the easiest of times in recent months. A poor finish last season cost them a promotion playoff spot. They recently had a change in management after an unconvincing start to this campaign.
The visitors have suffered two defeats in their opening four matches of the season. They even failed to score in the two defeats. Their confidence will, however, grow after their latest outing which ended in a 1-0 win at home to relegated Premier League side Luton Town.
William Keane’s first half strike was all they needed for their first three points of the new season. In their other win earlier on, they impressively overcame Championship opposition Sunderland 2-0 in the League Cup first round.
Though winless in six away matches, Preston will still pose a threat to Harrogate’s ambitions in this competition.

Our Harrogate Town vs Preston North End Prediction
Preston haven't had an easy time both on and off the pitch over the past few months. After a poor ending to last season, they haven't had a strong start to this one either. Now they have to adjust to a new manager and this could be destabilizing.
Harrogate Town will hope to take advantage of that, and playing home might favor them. We expect them to trouble Preston but the Championship side should have enough quality to see this through.
Our prediction for Harrogate Town v Preston North End is for Preston to win and both teams to score.
