Aston Villa v Preston
Tuesday 19:45
Tondela 1 Sporting Lisbon 2 in Portugal last night. Our BTTS bet won early as it was 1-1 within half an hour and today we're looking to consolidate on home turf.
Among the eight Championship fixtures taking place tonight, it's seventh-placed Preston North End's visit to third-placed Aston Villa that's caught our eye. This fixture finished 2-2 last season and we like the big price on Over 2.5 Goals for their latest encounter.
The hosts lost on the road at the weekend, but have been in fine form at Villa Park. Steve Bruce's men have scored at least twice on each of their last five appearances there. Four of those games went Over 2.5 Goals, as have 7/10 in front of the Holte End.
Alex Neil's Preston are unbeaten in eight on the road. They've found the back of the net in 11/13 away from home and we fancy the Lilywhites can strike again this evening and lift this one over the line.
