Preston North End vs Sunderland Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Devesh Jaganath | in Championship Predictions
The final day of the Championship season will play out before our eyes Monday afternoon, and with all matches kicking off simultaneously, our focus will be at Deepdale, where 11th placedd Preston North End will take on Sunderland who are seventh and have to win this game to have any hope of a top six finish. With two of the promotion playoff spots already secured by Luton Town and Middlesbrough, the final day will see as many as five sides battle for the remaining two spots to keep their Premier League hopes alive.

Despite playing at home, the bookmakers have made Preston North End out the outsiders, priced up at 4.0 and better to pull off a win. The visitors are currently the strong favourites but still offering great value at 1.9 to win, while the draw is currently returning in the region of 3.5. Neither of these sides have been particularly good in defense in the latter part of this season, and with it being the final day of the season, we can expect a fast-paced match with lots of chances. The both teams to score market grabs our attention, with odds of 1.66 available, while the slightly riskier over 2.5 goals and both teams to score option could reward its backers handsomely, currently showing up at 2.2 and better on most bookmakers.

Preston North End & Sunderland Squad Analysis
Preston will have to make do without the services of Greg Cunningham and Alan Browne, with both players ruled out of this fixture through injury. They will join long-term absentees Emil Ris and Ched Evans on the bench, which should see Troy Parrot and the eye-catching Tom Cannon start in attack. Sunderland, on the other hand, have a list of injuries coming into this one, with as many as seven players expected to be unavailable for this crucial encounter. Danny Brath is the latest player to be ruled out and will join his defensive partner Ajibola Alese on the bench. Ross Stewart, Elliot Embleton, Jewison Bennette, Daniel Ballard, and Corry Evans round out the Sunderland casualty list.

Our Preston North End vs Sunderland Prediction
With it being the final day of the season, we expect both these sides to go all out to end the season on a high.
