RELY ON ROBINS

Championship: 3pm BRISTOL CITY boss Lee Johnson is urging his players to “keep the faith” despite their recent poor form.

City have lost their last two games – against Reading and Stoke – but Johnson believes there have been several positives from both defeats.

Today’s opponents might not be the best team to change their fortunes as the Robins have a wretched record against Preston. They have not beaten the Lancashire side at Ashton Gate in their last six games.

Johnson said: “Talk about a bogey team! Preston are the absolute, but they’re a good side.”
