Betting suggestion:

Two teams that need to add three points, especially Stoke City, which has only 1 point in 2 games. We admit that this game will be very busy, with some moments closed, however, it is anticipated that the away team will have more initiative in the game since it has a squad with more quality. Having said this and analyzing the offensive performance of the two teams in these conditions, betting in favor of the market '' Under 2,5 goals '' in this game is of great value.

Preview
Preston North End and Stoke City meet at Deepdale Stadium, in a match for the 3rd round of the Championship. The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 23‑07‑2016, and ended in a draw by (1‑1). The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since Preston North End presents significant differences between home and away results.

Analysis Preston

The home team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 3 points won. In their debut, they won in a home match against Queens Park Rangers, by (1‑0). In the second round, they lost in an away match against Swansea City, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 31 goals scored and 13 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 22 goals scored and 19 conceded. They come to this match after a home win against Morecambe by (3‑1). Preston North End has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches.

Preston North End heads to this clash motivated due to a 3-1 win over Morecambe in a game to count for the English League Cup. However, in the last game for the championship the locals were defeated by Swansea by 1-0. On this round coach Alex Neil should keep the team in 4-2-3-1 with Nmecha being the team's most offensive reference. We emphasize the importance of Josh Harrop in the tactical scheme of the team, having this player great vision of the game. For this game against Stoke the coach can not count on Bodin and Maguire, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Declan Rudd, Darnell Fisher, Andrew Hughes, Tom Clarke, Ben Davies, Alan Browne, Ben Pearson, Paul Gallagher, Callum Robinson, Lukas Nmecha, Graham Burke.
Coach: A. Neil.

Analysis Stoke

The away team is currently in the 22th position of the league, with 1 point won. In their debut they lost in an away match against Leeds United, by (3‑1). In the second round, they tied in a home match against Brentford, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Stoke City has won 2, tied 2 and lost 6. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Stoke City has been struggling in the start of the English second division and currently adds two straight games without a win. In the last match, the away team added a 1-1 draw against Brentford: the only goal of the team was signed by Afobe. In this away game coach Gary Rowett should play in the usual 4-2-3-1 with Bojan Krkic being responsible for organizing and creating the offensive process. However, the player with the best quality at the time of finishing is Afobe, scorer of the only goal of the team in the previous game. By all means the away coach can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Jack Butland, Tom Edwards, Erik Pieters, Ashley Williams, Ryan Shawcross, Joe Allen, Thomas Ince, Darren Fletcher, James McClean, Benik Afobe, Saido Berahino.
Coach: M. O'Neill.
