Josh Harrop sidelined for Preston

Preston will be without Josh Harrop for the Sky Bet Championship home clash with Blackburn on Saturday.

Harrop missed Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with Leeds and boss Alex Neil has said the attacker has a hamstring problem that will keep him out for “a few weeks”.

Billy Bodin, not involved in the last two games, has been back in training and could make his return to the matchday squad.

Skipper Tom Clarke and Louis Moult (both knee) remain sidelined for the sixth-placed Lilywhites.

Blackburn midfielder Lewis Holtby is set to sit things out again having been an absentee for the 1-0 loss at Birmingham on Tuesday.

Rovers boss Tony Mowbray was quoted by the Lancashire Telegraph as saying: “Lewis isn’t going to make the weekend. He has a slight hamstring twinge. There’s a very slight strain that we will have to manage for the next week or so, but I’m sure he’ll be back very quickly.”

The former Tottenham player and Germany international, who joined Blackburn last month, scored one goal and set up another while making his first start for the club last Saturday in the 2-2 draw against Huddersfield.

Mowbray’s men are 16th in the table and winless in their last five games.
