Preview

Match preview

Preston welcome Millwall to Deepdale sitting 23rd in the Championship table with just four points from their opening eight matches. The hosts have endured a difficult campaign, suffering six defeats and failing to keep a clean sheet across all competitions so far. While they managed a 2-2 draw at Queens Park Rangers in their previous outing, defensive frailties remain evident with an average of two goals conceded per home game.

Millwall arrive in 11th position with 11 points and have shown significant attacking potency, netting 15 goals across their first eight fixtures. Striker Lyndon Dykes leads their attack with four league goals. However, the visitors are balancing an extensive injury list that includes J. Coburn, T. Crama, C. De Norre, M. Ivanovic, L. Jensen, R. Leonard and M. Luongo, which has contributed to an unsettled backline that concedes 2.5 goals per match on their travels.

Historical meetings between these two sides heavily favour the Lions. Millwall are undefeated in their last ten encounters against Preston, recording four wins and six draws, including a 2-0 victory on their most recent visit to Deepdale in February 2026.

Millwall or Draw — 76% confidence

Preston have managed just one win from eight league games this season, losing six times and struggling particularly in defence where they have kept zero clean sheets. Millwall have established complete dominance in this fixture over recent years, remaining unbeaten in ten straight head-to-head matches against Preston with four wins and six draws. Backing Millwall to secure at least a point covers both an away victory and the frequent stalemate between these two sides while reflecting Preston's current lack of winning form.

BTTS Yes — 71% confidence

Both teams exhibit clear patterns of scoring and conceding. Preston have conceded 15 goals in eight matches and have zero clean sheets to their name, yet they have scored in six of those eight games. Millwall possess significant firepower with 15 goals scored overall and have found the net in every single away league match this season, though their depleted defence has leaked ten goals in four away games. Seven of the previous ten meetings between these two clubs have also seen both teams get on the scoresheet.

These two calls are about different parts of the match (double chance and both teams to score), so neither one determines the other. The figure shown is the lower of the two — a combo can never be more likely than its weaker leg.
