Sunderland are top of the pile, with four wins from four, while Cardiff City sit bottom of the table with one point. There is, of course, a long, long way to go yet - but clubs will be keen to find form after the break, especially Preston North End. It’s been a turbulent start for the Lilywhites, with the Deepdale club having been in search of a new manager after just one game.

Paul Heckingbottom is the new man in the dugout at PNE, with a win over Luton Town and defeat to Oxford United so far. North End’s next home game is a week on Tuesday, against Fulham in the Carabao Cup. It’s then Blackburn Rovers, on Sunday afternoon, for the first Lancashire derby of the campaign.

Before both of those, though, is a tricky test at Middlesbrough - who are backed for a strong season under Michael Carrick. The passionate home crowd at the Riverside tend to generate an impressive noise, which Preston will need to handle on the day.
