If the Gyoks fit give Allen a start and return to the 1-0 box from Blackpool game
If he's not give the W+W strikeforce a spin

That's how important the big-man is in how we set up at the mo 👊

Would go Waghorn and Walker up top. I think with a central midfield pairing of Hamer and Kelly the risks of being overran in midfield are not as likely. Could even bench O'Hare for Allen as CAM, but with him he'll drop deep and help out defensively.

Then bring O'Hare on second half to run them ragged.

Not sure I'd want Gyo having all that extra running around on what will be at the very least a sore ankle and risk aggravating it even if he is fit enough to start.

Two up top for me regardless of whether Gyo is fit or not.

As others have said, I'm expecting Vik to have a rest for the game. Wagz and Walker up front but as Wagz and Vik play the same style, the attacking threat is still there. It starts to be threadbare if one of those two need to be subbed. Would like to see Kelly and Sheaf in CM with Hamer pushed forward in place of COH. Hamer won't have the work rate of COH but his passing ability will create opportunities for the 2 forwards.

All in all, we have the team to beat Preston. But I'm still not convinced the team have enough belief in themselves away from home. The next win will give them a boost. Until then, the fear will always be if we don't score, we'll lose.

So I'll stick to my guns of predicting defeat with a 2-1 home win for Preston.

Think Robins also mentioned JCS was back out of isolation on Monday . So i think he will be involved. Rose back on the bench.

Robins during the last midweek game gave McFadz a rest after 70 mins ish. Although we were 5 nil down then.

Hopefully we will 2 or 3 nil up this time.

We would assume the team will travelling up tommorow morning/afternoon.

Robins will probably be at the Derby game today ahead of the weekend.

Nice touch by Preston for their game against Derby. They've dropped all prices to £5 including for away fans and will be donating all monies to charities supported by their owner, who passed away last week. Any purchases of full price tickets will be valid for a refund of the difference or if the buyer is willing, they can forfeit the refund and all the money will be donated to charity.

Rose has been poor for about 18 months now but it woukd be a bit harsh on him after his two literal goal saving moments last game. Think he’s earned another start.

Rose will keep his place with JCH on bench
Maatson in for Kane
Hamer in for sheaf
Victor is fine

They are also doing a 3 for 2 ticket offer for their next three home games, maybe something we could do in the future?
