Stats for this game
Matchup Preston VS Blackburn
Blackburn hold a measured league edge
Blackburn beat Preston 1-0 at home on 20 February 2026 and 2-1 away on 21 November 2025. They also won 2-1 at home on 31 January 2025, giving Blackburn a measured direction across both venues. Preston answered with a 2-1 home victory on 5 September 2026, so the balance includes a direct response rather than a settled order. The margins remain close throughout these Championship meetings.
Shared points keep the comparison open
Preston and Blackburn drew 0-0 at Preston on 22 September 2024 and 2-2 there on 17 February 2024. Those level results add resistance to Blackburn’s wins and Preston’s reply, making the fixture more balanced than a simple account of decisive scorelines. Blackburn carry the stronger direction, while Preston’s home victory provides a direct reply. A future Championship meeting can give either side a new emphasis without erasing the narrow margins already present.
