Latest supercomputer predicts final Championship table - and where Preston North End, Blackburn Rovers and Derby County finish

PNE’s unbeaten run continued on Saturday afternoon.

PNE headed into the third international break of the campaign on an unbeaten note on Saturday afternoon as they picked up a point against Millwall.

Paul Heckingbottom’s men took the lead at The Den just 15 minutes into the contest through Michael Smith before Mihailo Ivanovic equalised for the hosts on the stroke of half time.

The point against the Lilywhites’ early play-off rivals maintains their top six spot and go into the two-week stoppage fourth in the table.

North End now sit just three points behind second-placed Middlesbrough, having picked up 26 points from their opening 15 games this term.
