Preston 1-1 West Brom: North End hold unbeaten Baggies to draw at Deepdale

Promotion-chasing West Bromwich Albion were held to their third Championship draw in a week as they were forced to settle for a share of the spoils against Preston North End at Deepdale.

Preston also drew their third game on the trot after picking up points on the road at Bristol City and Sheffield United.

And Frankie McAvoy's side briefly looked on for a third successive home league win when they took the lead on 26 minutes.

Emil Riis set up midfielder Ben Whiteman - and his right-foot shot from outside the box found the bottom right corner for his second goal in successive home games.
