Expect goals in this Lancashire Derby

Both of these sides are in the play-off mix as we approach the business end of the season. A must win game for both Preston and Blackburn should make for an exciting Lancashire Derby at Deepdale.

The last two meetings between Preston and Blackburn have averaged five goals per game, the reverse league fixture at Ewood Park back in December finished 4-1 to Preston.

Over 2.5 match goals has been a winning selection in four of the last five meetings between these two sides, more of the same is expected on Saturday.

Preston can complete league double over Rovers

Preston are unbeaten in their last six home matches (W4, D2), they are fancied to take the points on Saturday and complete the league double over the Lancashire rivals.

Preston ran out comfortable winners when these two last met in December and go into Saturday’s game on the back of some good recent performances on home soil. Blackburn on the other hand are winless in their last six (D3, L3) and it is hard to make a strong case for the visitors in this one.

Both teams to score and over 2.5 match goals will be the headline selection for Saturday’s game at Deepdale, with a 2-1 home win forming the correct score prediction.
