Preston and Burnley go head-to-head in the fifth round of the FA Cup in what should be an epic Lancashire derby.
The hosts are currently winless in the last three games but speaking of the FA Cup, they had to go to penalties to defeat Wycombe Wanderers in the previous round.
The away side were more convincing in the fourth round and caused an upset by beating the Premier League side Southampton 1-0 to advance to the fifth round.
Preston - Burnley Betting Tips: Burnley to Win
Burnley have been in a formidable form over the past two or three months. The away side are undefeated in their last 23 matches in all competitions and have won seven out of the possible ten away games, losing none and drawing the other three. Preston, on the other hand, have failed to win their last three encounters and are also winless against Burnley in the last four head-to-head meetings against the Clarets.
