Match Preview
Centre-back Liam Lindsay was the unlikely hero for Preston last time out as his brace helped seal a 3-2 away win over a struggling Sheffield United side. The Lilywhites have struggled at Deepdale lately, though, winning just three of their last 14 on home soil.
Southampton thought they had secured a critical win over second-placed Ipswich on Tuesday until Jack Clarke equalised with just three minutes remaining. The Saints, despite being unbeaten in 18 Championship matches, are now out of contention for automatic promotion heading into the final day.
