Preston vs Wycombe Wanderers Predictions

• Preston are unbeaten in their last nine home matches
• Both teams have scored in seven of the last eight games at Deepdale
• All but three of Wycombe’s last 15 away games have featured at least three goals

Home record points way to Preston success

Preston suffered defeat in last week’s Lancashire derby at Blackburn and will know they will have to be at the top of their game to get past Wycombe in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday.

Their home form should stand them in good stead and they will take confidence from the fact that they have already accounted for a League One side in this competition when they beat Charlton in the last round.

A nine-match unbeaten run at Deepdale means it is a difficult place to go and North End should be able to hold form, even if they are pushed all the way by Wanderers, who could be joining them in the Championship next season.

Wycombe should find the North End net

Wycombe should take heart from the fact Preston have kept just one home clean sheet in their last eight matches on their own patch and they also accounted for second-tier opposition when they beat Portsmouth in the previous round.

Expect the team who have won eight of their last 11 away matches to find the net, but the value just lies in backing the home side to get the job done, with a 2-1 Preston win of potential interest for those looking for a correct-score bet.
