Team News
There’s positive news on the injury front as Harrison Armstrong is back in contention, while Andrija Vukčević is also back ready to be called upon.
Long-term absentee Brad Potts is constantly making strides forwards and could soon be back in contention. Meanwhile, Ali McCann is being kept away from contact training due to his broken arm, however he’s getting involved in ball work where possible.
After being forced off last weekend due to a hamstring issue, Jamal Lewis has joined the rest of the injured pack, which consists of Lewis Gibson, Robbie Brady and Theo Carroll.
The Visitors
Wrexham head to Deepdale as one of the division’s form teams, having not been defeated in the league since October, going their last eight matches unbeaten.
In that run of fixtures, the newly-promoted outfit have conceded just four goals and no Championship team has a better defensive record away from home this season.
At the other end, Kieffer Moore has been their main source of goals with seven, and he’s bagged four times against PNE in his career.
