Preston score an average of 2.25 goals at home, while Millwall concede 2.5 goals away, pointing to goals for the hosts. The visitors average 1.5 goals scored away, and their xG is 1.60 compared with the 1.26 xG conceded by Preston, so they could also get on the scoresheet. Over 2.5 landed in 80% of both teams’ last 5 matches, but with a projected total of 3.40 goals, the 1.5 line offers a clearly greater margin of safety than higher lines.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Preston led at the break in 3 of their 4 analyzed home matches and conceded an average of just 0.25 goals in the first half, while Millwall were trailing at half-time in 2 of their 4 away games.

Recent form tempers confidence in the pick: Preston scored just 0.2 goals per game after half-time across their five most recent matches. Even so, the combination of the hosts’ frequent half-time leads and Millwall’s weak away defense makes 1/1 the most likely single HT/FT scenario.
