Ninth last season in the Championship, Preston North End was too short to claim to climb into the elite of English football. A step is a little too high for the Northenders who seem in difficulty at the start of the championship. After a loss at home against Swansea City, they brought back a good point of their trip on the lawn of Norwich City (2-2). In the cup, Preston is also flawless with two victories against Mansfield in the first round (4-0) and on the lawn of Derby County in the second (1-2).
Set up in 2017, Brighton once again met expectations last season by ensuring its maintenance. The team took 15th place in the Premier League with 3 units behind their opponent of the day and 7 ahead of the red zone. The Seagulls have started this 2020-2021 season very well. After this defeat with a very interesting content against Chelsea (1-3) at home, Brighton largely won in the 2nd round of this EFL Cup against Portsmouth (4-0) before destroying Newcastle this weekend in the Saint James Park (0-3).
The workforce for Preston vs Brighton
For locals, in the direction of departures as for that of arrivals, there is nothing to report on the Preston side. Executives like Daniel Johnson, Alan Browne, Ben Davies, or David Nugent are still very present within this club which has managed to maintain its framework. Last weekend against Norwich City, it was Scott Sinclair and Darnell Fischer who found the net.
For Brighton, this trip will be the goalkeeper n ° 2 recruited this summer Walton (ex-Blackburn), Izquierdo (long-injured), and Florin Andone, back from his loan at Galatasaray. Also, holders Lallana (ex-Liverpool) and White are uncertain as is manager Dale Stephens. During the offseason, the team was forced to let go of substitute defender Shane Duffy (Celtic), important midfielder Aaron Mooy (Shanghai SIPG), and side Martin Montoya (ex-Barça). The club has been clever to compensate for these absences since it has enlisted at a lower cost the Dutch defender, often injured with Ajax lately, Joel Veltman (28), and the experienced attacking midfielder of Liverpool, also in prey to injuries, Adam Lallana (32). The 1st city remained on the bench during the 1st day while Lallana was the holder. Last year, the Frenchman Neal Maupay finished the club’s top scorer in the league with 10 goals.
