3) Preston v Port Vale
Preston North End remain unbeaten in the league at home in 2014, considering we are half way through October that’s a fantastic achievement. Preston have managed to bag sixteen goals in eight home games so far in the 2014/15 season, however PNE have conceded nine times at Deepdale. Opponents Port Vale have their own goal machine in Tom Pope who recently told BBC Radio Stoke that he has no intention of leaving, despite being linked with a move away. Pope has scored seven times since the start of the season. Port Vale have scored nine times in their last seven away games. It’s worth noting these two sides met last Tuesday 7th October at Deepdale, Preston won the fixture 3-2. Both sides scored.
