There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Preston's last 11 games (Championship). West Brom have drawn their last 3 away matches (Championship). Preston have failed to score in 6 of their last 8 matches (Championship). Preston have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 4 matches against West Brom in all competitions. Preston have failed to win their last 6 home matches (Championship).
Ryan Lowe could make sweeping changes for the visit of West Brom on Wednesday night with Brad Potts, Ali McCann and Troy Parrott all likely to start for the hosts. Centre-back Andrew Hughes was absent from the matchday squad on Saturday and remains a doubt for this midweek clash. Steve Bruce is expected to recall central midfielder Jayson Molumby after Tom Rogic made his debut in his place on Saturday afternoon. The reason for Kyle Bartley's lack of involvement remains unknown with the experienced centre-half having missed both of the Baggies' last two league games.
Preston's lack of attacking threat cost them points once again on Saturday afternoon as they were forced to settle for a goalless draw against Tony Mowbray's Sunderland. The Lilywhites have notched up just three goals in 11 league games this season, but their strong defensive organisation means they sit in 14th place. Steve Bruce was lucky to hold onto his job following another dismal result on Saturday, this time in a 3-2 home defeat against Swansea. Wednesday's visitors have won just one of their opening 11 league games this season and defeat here will almost certainly spell the end for Bruce's time at the Hawthorns. 0:0
