Competition for places at Preston
Posted Friday, July 10, 2020 by PA
Preston have a quartet of players pushing for starts as they take on fellow Sky Bet Championship play-off hopefuls Nottingham Forest.
Scott Sinclair, Jayden Stockley and Brad Potts all stepped off the bench and scored as Preston came from behind to defeat Sheffield Wednesday 3-1 during the week.
The trio will hope that their goalscoring exploits will be enough to earn starting berths, alongside midfielder Daniel Johnson who also made a substitute appearance after recovering from injury.
Centre-back Paul Huntington is suspended, while striker Louis Moult remains sidelined with a knee injury.
Forest boss Sabri Lamouchi is waiting on Joe Lolley ahead of the trip to Deepdale.
The winger limped off at half-time during the midweek 1-0 loss to Fulham but Lamouchi is confident he should be fit to travel to the north west.
Midfielder Samba Sow was also withdrawn at half-time against the Cottagers with a knock but is fit to feature.
Forest sit fifth in the table and are seven points above their hosts.
