Preston North End manager Ryan Lowe has a big call to make in Saturday’s home clash with Norwich City.
It’s a massive match at Deepdale, as the Lilywhites look to close the gap to Norwich down to two points. With five games left to play, it’s now or never for North End to make a push for the final play-off place. The Canaries currently occupy that spot, but this weekend’s encounter could have a huge say in the final standings.
On the team news front, Ryan Ledson is back in the fold but Liam Millar, Ben Whiteman and Brad Potts are expected to remain out. The decision facing Lowe, though, is whether he hands a start to hat-trick hero Milutin Osmajic. The Montenegrin netted three goals in the space of seven minutes, as PNE beat Huddersfield Town, 4-1, on Tuesday night.
Here is our predicted North End XI to face Norwich...

9. CAM: Duane Holmes
It'd be a big call to leave Mads Frokjaer out, but Lowe did it at Watford and Holmes was magnificent on Tuesday. Having players capable of making a huge impact, from the bench, isn't a bad thing. Unless Holmes plays at right wing-back, it'd be a surprise to see both him and the Dane start. | Getty Images
10. ST: Will Keane
Picking a front two for this game is not easy at all, but you'd hazard a guess that Will Keane will be one half of the strike-force. He has scored 13 goals this season and is excellent at dropping in, linking the game and moving defenders around. | CameraSport - Dave Howarth

11. ST: Milutin Osmajic
Leaving out Emil Riis does not feel right, but when a player scores a hat-trick in seven minutes - it's hard to expect them to stay on the bench. That said, you could understand if Lowe stuck with Keane and Riis - who have linked up well - and trusted Osmajic to make a similar impact as a substitute. | CameraSport - Rich Linley
