In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (7 out of 16 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 33 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 17 times and have only turned the score around in 3. In the last 16 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 17 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Preston North End come into this game on the back of a 2-2 draw at home to Blackburn, which gave them their fifth successive clean sheet in this competition, with goals coming from Robbie Brady and Emil Riis. Ryan Lowe's side usually play a 3-5-2 tactical system, which favours a quicker style of play. The two men in charge of causing panic in the opposition defence are Will Keane and Emil Riis. The brains of the team is midfielder Mads Frøkjaer-Jensen, the player in charge of defining and directing his team's attacks. Andrew Hughes, Duane Holmes and Kian Best are absent due to fitness problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Freddie Woodman, Andrew Hughes, Jordan Storey, Liam Lindsay, Mads Frokjaer-Jensen, Alan Browne, Benjamin Whiteman, Alistair McCann, Will Keane, Emil Riis, Liam Millar.
Coach: R. Lowe.
