Burnley vs Preston
Burnley come into this match in decent shape, having won two of their last five and picked up draws in two more. Their most recent outing was a solid win, and they've been creating chances in most games. Preston, on the other hand, are struggling badly - they lost their last two games heavily and have been conceding a lot of goals, though they did manage a couple of narrow wins earlier on.
These two teams haven't met recently, so there's no history of high-scoring clashes to go on. Based on current form, Burnley look the stronger side and are in better spirits, while Preston are having a rough patch. This one looks like a game Burnley should win, but it could stay fairly close - Preston have shown they can scrap out results even when not playing well.
