⭐ Editorial Prediction
West Brom have been more convincing in head-to-head matchups, but they conceded in both games last season. Currently, the team is far from their peak form, whereas Preston are on an unbeaten run and haven't lost away matches in the Championship. Based on this, our bet is that the visitors will score. We can't rule out a sensational 1-0 victory for the "Sky Blues."
