Stoke City host Preston North End at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday, 31 October, with kick-off at 12:30. Mark Robins' Stoke sit 9th on 20 points from 12 games, having lost only once in their last five, while Paul Heckingbottom's Preston are bottom on 5 points with a goal difference of -15. Preston arrive on a winless run of five, though last weekend's 1-1 draw with West Bromwich Albion stopped a run of three straight defeats. History offers the visitors some encouragement, as Preston have won 12 of the 28 Championship meetings since 1993/94 compared with 6 for Stoke, with 10 draws. Can Stoke press home their advantage, or will Preston kick-start their season here?
