REF’s picks

Both teams scoring looks a reasonable angle given Preston's leaky backline coupled with Stoke's capability to create chances at home.

1. 1Preston concede heavily on their travels, giving Stoke ample opportunity to score.
2. 2Stoke's defensive lapses could easily gift the visitors a consolation goal.

REF's own opinion, not a guarantee — nothing here is financial or betting advice, and the call is always yours.
