Blackburn have seen both teams score in 5/6 in all competitions this season, with Preston at 4/6 in their games so far.

In those 12 games, Blackburn have managed one clean sheet and Preston are yet to keep one, and those leaky defences could contribute to landing this bet in the Saturday lunchtime kick-off.

The bet has landed in two of the last three meetings between the sides, including when Blackburn made the trip to Deepdale last term.

Blackburn have scored exactly two goals on their travels twice already this season and this is an opportunity to do similar, with Preston rock bottom of the Championship with zero points from four games.

Blackburn look value outsiders here, and that's adding to the value in the odds of their attacking players to get shots off.

Todd Cantwell has been Blackburn's biggest goal threat so far this season, with the highest individual xG in the squad, and he's had a shot on target in three of their four league games so far, starting every one.

The game where he didn't hit the target was away at Wolves on the opening night of the season, it's fair to say that that was a much more challenging away trip than this one to 24th-placed pointless Preston.

Cantwell had six shots in the 2-1 loss at home to QPR last weekend, showing how busy he is in the final third.

Ryoya Morishita is a short yet backable price for a shot here, even though he's had one in every match so far this season.

Furthermore, he's had a shot on target in five of his six appearances so far.

Only four teams have conceded more shots on target per game than Preston have in the second tier so far, and an attacking side like Blackburn can take advantage of that.

We don't need to worry about the accuracy of the shot for this selection; a sliced shot off his shin pad that goes off for a throw would do.

There’s a significant and growing anti-Paul Heckingbottom sentiment growing amongst the Preston North End fanbase, and that will rear its head if they trail at any point in this game.

That frustration from the stands could energise the Blackburn players, who could jump back into the play-offs with a win over their local rivals.

Rovers have won the last three meetings between the two teams and this bet has landed in each of the last five head-to-heads.

PNE have conceded two more goals in three of their four Championship outings so far, replicating that would make it very unlikely that they pull off a win.

Harry Clarke rarely scores, but he does shoot with remarkable regularity for a right sided defender.

He's had a shot in each of his three starts for North End so far, and can be a threat from set pieces.

Of those four total shots, two have been headers from corners and the other two have come from outside the box.

Blackburn aren't as strong down the left as they are the right flank, with key player Ryan Alebiosu bombing forward from right back, and that may see a larger proportion of Preston's attacks come down their right, in targeting Blackburn's left.

That should increase the number of times that Clarke takes up attacking positions and, therefore, his chances of having a shot.
