Preston North End vs Wycombe Wanderers

Saturday 8th February 2025 (k.o. 3pm)
Emirates FA Cup Round Four
Deepdale

Referee: Benjamin Speedie

Blues head north to Deepdale on Saturday backed by more than 900 Chairboys fans as they bid to reach the fifth round of the Emirates FA Cup for only the second time in their history.

Having already defeated Championship opposition twice in cup competitions earlier this season, Wanderers look to complete a hat-trick against a Preston North End side who currently sit 15th in the third tier, but haven't lost at home since early November.

It's Mike Dodds' first game as Head Coach of the Blues and he took training for the first time on Thursday after having reaffirmed in his pre-match media interviews that it's business as usual for the side that have gone five games unbeaten and strengthened the squad across the pitch during the January transfer window.

With no replays in the FA Cup, it'll be settled on the day with the prospect of extra-time and penalties looming if the scores are level after 90 minutes.
