Preston North End vs Luton Town Prediction
Luton Town is the favourite here because they are in much better form and they are a better and better team as how the season goes on.
Preston is struggling and everybody criticizes Ryan Lowe’s defensive style. Preston is a very ineffective team and they are missing two top scorers.
We think that this game will be a very tight and close one but we also think that Luton will leave Preston undefeated.
