The match between Preston North End and Norwich City has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions that have rendered the pitch unplayable.
Heavy rainfall in the days leading up to the fixture has led to significant surface water accumulation, raising concerns for player safety and match integrity.
Officials conducted a thorough inspection of the Deepdale stadium pitch but ultimately determined that it would not meet the necessary standards for play. Both clubs, along with the match officials, agreed that the decision to postpone was in the best interest of everyone involved.
Fans who were looking forward to the clash will be disappointed, but safety must always come first. The two teams are now working closely with the Football League to find a suitable date for the rescheduled match.
This postponement adds to the busy schedules of both teams as they navigate their respective campaigns. Supporters are encouraged to keep an eye on official club channels for updates regarding the new date and ticket information. Despite this setback, both clubs remain focused on their objectives for the season and will be eager to return to action as soon as possible.
