Swansea vs Preston North End Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ian John | in Championship Predictions
Swansea City hosts Preston North End in both teams' second match of the Championship season this weekend. Both the Swans and Lilywhites lost last weekend but enjoyed morale-boosting wins in their Carabao Cup matches in midweek. Who will our prediction favor in this match between two pointless rivals?
The home side enjoyed a solid pre-season and put up a strong defensive display away to Middlesbrough, only losing to a 25th-minute penalty from Emmanuel Latte Lath. However, with just five shots on goal, and none on target, they are going to have to improve their productivity in front of goal.
In midweek, the Swans did precisely that. They earned a comfortable 3-1 win over Gillingham at the Swansea.com Stadium, Ronald, Liam Cullen and Azeem Abdulai scoring the goals. Luke Williams' team had 13 shots on goal and nine on target in that game, which was a far more impressive attacking display.
Preston manager Ryan Lowe may feel a little under pressure already in the new season. His team have lost all their last six Championship matches, including five at the end of last season. More worryingly, they have failed to find the net in any of those half-dozen defeats.
However, one positive was a 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Sunderland in the EFL Cup First round in midweek. However, Sunderland did play a second-string tie for that fixture, which likely played a part in their relatively meek defeat at the hands of the Lilywhites.

Our Swansea vs Preston North End Prediction
Our prediction for Swansea City vs. Preston North End in the Championship is: Both Teams to Score - No.
Preston's struggles in the Championship continued in their season's opening fixture. While a win in the Carabao Cup in midweek was a huge boost, the Lilywhites league form is dismal. Stretching back into last season, they have not scored in any of their last six league matches. Swansea have solid home form, losing just one of their last six and the data suggests that Preston may struggle to break their scoring drought here.
