West Brom Faces Preston North End in Championship Match

West Bromwich Albion is preparing to face Preston North End as they aim to improve on a disappointing run of eight draws in nine games. Preston is struggling, having not won in their last eight Championship matches, currently sitting in 19th place. Albion head coach Carlos Corberan has received a boost with the return of defender Kyle Bartley, who played well after an earlier-than-expected return from injury, and Darnell Furlong returning from a suspension. Bartley is expected to start again, which may lead to a reshuffle in the defensive lineup. Historically, Preston has struggled against West Brom, losing their last three encounters, while West Brom has had mixed results at Deepdale recently, winning three of their last six visits. This match is crucial for both teams as they seek to reverse their fortunes in the Championship.
