With Ryan Lowe at the helm they look a side trying to play and hopefully they will stay faithfull to their plan, but that would of course be a tall challenge against a Leicester team. A chase for more points will be there either to reach the tally of promotion or having a goal to reach, winning the championship. Preston have lost their last three games, so it's a bit of a bananaskin this one, seldom a team lose four in a row.
The goal for Leicester must be to go for the title, if they are allready promoted, if not the game stands for itself. Recent results against Southampton and West Bromwich has shown what is possible in a long season of many games to play.
There are no injury worries for Enzo Maresca as he approach this clash on Monday.

Preston North End Football Club, commonly referred to as Preston, North End or PNE, is a professional football club in Preston, Lancashire, England. They currently play in the EFL Championship, the second tier of the English football league system. Originally a cricket club, Preston has been based at Deepdale since 1875. The club first took up football in 1878 as a winter fitness activity and decided to focus on it in May 1880, when the football club was officially founded. Deepdale is now football's oldest ground in terms of continuous use by a league club.
With a yellow trim on the collar, shirt sleeves and shorts, as well as subtle stripes running down the jersey, the new home shirt channels a classic North End kit worn in the 1980s.
