Match summary

Preston North End vs Millwall in the Championship on Saturday 10 October 2026: our model backs a Millwall win, and the double chance covers Preston North End or Millwall to win (no draw).

Why this pick?

The result pick is Millwall, mainly because its long-run, xG-based strength rating is far higher than Preston North End's, with Preston clearly below the Championship average. Preston's home advantage is the main counterpoint. Still, Millwall's recent play has them creating big chances clearly above the league average, while Preston's touches in the opposition box sit below average and they concede more shots than average. Preston have one win from eight league games and sit 23rd, and Millwall lead the head-to-head with ten wins to two since 2010. That makes the call narrow.
