Preston North End vs Fulham Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Ian John in Carabao Cup Predictions
Carabao Cup action returns to Lancashire this week as Preston North End host Fulham. The Lilywhites are already onto their third manager of the season in Paul Heckingbottom, after a turbulent start to the campaign. In contrast, Fulham started well under Marco Silva, with the Cottagers losing just once in five games. This cup match offers the chance of an upset, so will our prediction back that outcome?
It's been a tough start to the season for Preston fans. Ryan Lowe was dismissed after an opening-day loss to Sheffield United, Mike Marsh resigned after two games as caretaker, and Paul Heckingbottom inherited a club in turmoil. He has led them to two wins, a draw, and a loss in four games since taking over.
They may have struggled in the league, but in the Carabao Cup, North End performed superbly. They beat Sunderland in the First round 2-0 and then thrashed Harrogate 5-0 on the road in the Second round in what was Heckingbottom's second game in charge.
Fulham's narrow opening-day defeat to Manchester United is their only loss this campaign. They have gone four games unbeaten since, winning one and drawing two in the Premier League and beating Birmingham City 2-0 at St. Andrews in the Second round of the Carabao Cup.
After a 1-1 draw at Middlesbrough at the weekend, Preston are 20th in the Championship after five games. Fulham are eleventh in the Premier League table after they drew 1-1 at home to West Ham on Saturday.

Our Preston North End vs Fulham Prediction
Our prediction for the Preston North End vs. Fulham Carabao Cup Third round tie is: Fulham to win.
Preston's form has improved under Paul Heckingbottom who has picked up a win and a draw in his three league games so far. However Fulham have lost just once this season and have such good squad depth nowadays that they should feel confident of landing another win here. Especially against a team that is struggling in the division below them.
