عاد واتفورد من التأخر ليهزم بريستون على أرضه

Preston North End took the lead inside five minutes when C. Lang found the net, putting Watford on the back foot early on. The home side struggled to find their rhythm in the opening stages as they chased an equaliser.

Watford levelled in the 69th minute through E. Kayembe, drawing level at one apiece. Seven minutes later, M. Doumbia put Watford ahead, assisted by I. Bravo, to turn the match on its head. Preston North End had no answer to the Watford comeback, and the home side held firm through four minutes of added time to secure a 2-1 victory over Preston North End.
