- 普雷斯顿在过去的11场比赛中只赢了一场，在过去的三场比赛中都输了
- 普利茅斯队在过去的五场比赛中赢了三场，这给了自己一个在下滑中幸存下来的机会
- 两队在这对组合的最后十场比赛中有九场得分
普利茅斯准备增加对普雷斯顿的压力
鉴于自11月30日以来，他们在每个比赛日结束时都处于锦标赛的最后三名，许多人预计普利茅斯在本赛季倒数第二场比赛之前就已经降级了。
然而，尽管面临重重困难，阿盖尔仍有机会继续留在英冠球队。朝圣者队在4月份的五场比赛中获得了9分，他们很有可能在周六的Deepdale取得积极的成绩，从而给他们的生存希望带来额外的提振。
他们的东道主状态不佳，米罗·穆西利奇的球队可以充分利用普雷斯顿的任何神经，普雷斯顿在一个危险的复活节周末后被拖入了一场混乱的降级混战。
朝圣者可能会给不幸的Lilywhites带来麻烦
在周五与女王公园巡游者队的比赛之前，北端队已经领先降级区7分，但在输掉了那场比赛和周一对赫尔城的比赛，而他们周围的球队取得了积极的成绩后，他们现在发现自己只比降级区高出3分。
看到保罗·赫金巴顿（Paul Heckingbottom）的球队表现得如此紧张，这并不奇怪。压力可能会给Lilywhites带来，缺乏选择可能会让他们步履蹒跚，六名球员被排除在外，另外三名球员需要评估。
普利茅斯队的最后两场胜利是对阵排名第三的谢菲尔德联队和状态良好的考文垂队，这表明正在战斗的清教徒队应该有足够的实力在Deepdale至少获得一分。
- Preston have won just one of their last 11 matches, losing each of the last three
- Plymouth have given themselves a chance of surviving the drop by winning three of their last five games
- Both teams scored in nine of this pair’s last ten combined fixtures
Plymouth primed to increase pressure on Preston
Given they have been in the Championship bottom three at the end of every matchday since November 30, many will have expected Plymouth to have been relegated well before the penultimate game of the season.
However, Argyle, against all odds, are still in with a chance of remaining a Championship side. The Pilgrims’ five games in April have yielded nine points and there is every chance they can give their survival hopes an extra boost by earning a positive result at Deepdale on Saturday.
Their hosts are woefully out of form and Miron Muslic’s side can take full advantage of any nerves from Preston, who have been dragged into a chaotic relegation dogfight after a dodgy Easter weekend.
Pilgrims can trouble luckless Lilywhites
North End were seven points clear of the drop zone before Friday’s clash with QPR but, having lost that fixture and Monday’s trip to Hull while sides around them picked up positive results, they now find themselves just three points above the drop.
It would be no surprise to see a nervy performance from Paul Heckingbottom’s side with that in the back of their minds. The pressure could get to the Lilywhites and a lack of options could see them falter, with six players ruled out and further three needing to be assessed.
Plymouth’s last two wins have come against third-placed Sheffield United and in-form Coventry, suggesting the battling Pilgrims should have more than enough about them to earn at least a point at Deepdale.
