Here at BetVictor News, we’ll be following the latest Preston North End stats throughout 2026/27 as Paul Heckingbottom looks to build on a steadier year at Deepdale.
North End finished 14th with 60 points last season, collecting 15 wins and 15 draws from their 46 Championship matches. They scored 55 goals and conceded 62, which was an improvement on the relegation battle of 2024/25 without ever quite developing into a serious play-off push.
There were moments when it threatened to become more. Preston climbed as high as the top four during the autumn, only for their momentum to disappear after Christmas. A run of just one win in 13 matches between January and March eventually dragged them back towards mid-table.
That makes consistency one of the useful numbers to watch this time around. Heckingbottom has also seen the club invest during the summer, with Alfie Devine returning permanently after his loan spell at Deepdale. The midfielder featured heavily last season and gives Preston some continuity in a squad that has also seen several experienced players move on.
For PNE, progress doesn’t necessarily require an immediate promotion challenge. Staying clear of another lengthy winless run and turning more of those draws into victories would already shift the picture.
As 2026/27 develops, wins, goals and results at Deepdale should show whether North End are moving forward. The wider football stats hub covers clubs across England, while Championship betting follows the division throughout the campaign.
