Callum Robinson scored the only goal of the game as Preston North End extended their remarkable unbeaten run over Bristol City.

Declan Rudd 7

Had a comfortable time on his return to the side. Save-wise was pressed into action just once, tipping Brownhill’s free-kick over the bar.

Tom Clarke 7

Played his part in a solid defensive show which limited Bristol City to one shot on target. Rarely troubled by Desilva down his side of the pitch.

Paul Huntington 8

Helped keep Diedhiou quiet and won plenty in the air when the home side went long. His best display for a while.

Ben Davies 8

Impressed again at the heart of the defence, read the game well and displayed a calmness on the ball when necessary.

Josh Earl 7

Much better display than last week at Ipswich, got to grips with wing-back Hunt and wasn’t afraid to put a foot in.

Ben Pearson 7

A simple and effective performance in the holding midfield role. Broke-up the home side’s play and prompted attacks.

Paul Gallagher 7

No need to volunteer for the gloves this week and instead caught the eye in midfield, showing off a good passing range.

Tom Barkhuizen 7

Showed his pace well, especially in the first half, and had a hand in the winning goal. Interchanged well in the front line.

Daniel Johnson 8

Played the No.10 role and did it very well. Linked play well and his pass to pick out Robinson for the winner was clever.

Callum Robinson 8

In the right spot to net PNE’s goal and that formed part of a hard-working display in which he played on the wing and up front.

STAR MAN: Sean Maguire 8

His best display since he returned from injury. Led several counter-attacks and set the ball rolling for Robinson’s goal with a fine pass. A hard-working, starman display.

Alan Browne 6

Replaced Gallagher in the 74th minute to provide fresh legs. A touch too eager at times, giving away a couple of free-kicks.

Lukas Nmecha 6

Sent on to stretch a tiring home defence for the last seven minutes and did that job well. Had a good run which could have brought a second.
