Match Preview
Skuse may return for City Cole Skuse could come back into the reckoning for Bristol City ahead of the visit of Preston. It is hoped the midfielder will train for the first time since suffering a heel injury in the defeat at Cardiff in mid-October. Manager Keith Millen has no new problems although defender Christian Ribeiro (groin and hip) and last season`s top scorer Nicky Maynard (knee) are continuing to make progress. Millen said: "Both of them have been in for checks. There`s nothing sinister in that, we just want to keep an eye on them. "We hope Christian will be back very soon, and Nicky before Christmas." Meanwhile, on-loan Wolves striker Sam Vokes is also nearing a comeback following his hamstring tear. Preston boss Darren Ferguson is boosted by the return of striker Jon Parkin for the trip. The powerful frontman was suspended during last weekend's 1-0 defeat to Leicester and could go straight back into the starting line-up. On-loan Manchester United striker Josh King, 18, is out of action because of an ankle injury and his three-month loan ends at the end of next week. King will be sidelined beyond then and Ferguson will decide in the next few days whether to extend the loan as fellow frontman Chris Brown will be out for another five weeks after a knee operation. Midfielder Barry Nicholson, a long-term absentee with a broken leg, is edging closer to a first-team return.

Match Report
Robins fight back for a share of the spoils A Billy Jones own goal rescued a point for Bristol City against fellow npower Championship strugglers Preston. The defender headed past his own goalkeeper midway through the second half to cancel out Iain Hume's early opener. The goal maintained City's recent resurgence and Keith Millen's side are now unbeaten in four matches. It might have been a different story had efforts from Hume and Jon Parkin been a little lower and not struck the crossbar with the score at 1-1. But the hosts could also have snatched victory with Albert Adomah's cross-shot coming back off the far post immediately after the equaliser. After holding then-leaders QPR to a draw at Ashton Gate and beating Middlesbrough away last weekend, Millen named the same starting XI for the third straight game. Preston boss Darren Ferguson made two changes, bringing Craig Morgan and Parkin back into the starting line up. North End flew out of the blocks and went ahead after just two minutes. Hume turned in Sean St Ledger's right-wing cross from 10 yards out for his third goal since joining on loan from Barnsley. Parkin twice failed to test David James with shots from the edge of the box, while Adomah and Marvin Elliott missed the target at the other end. Adomah then drilled a low shot narrowly wide as the first half drew to a close. Preston almost started the second half as they had the first when Hume crashed a 18-yard shot off the underside of the crossbar with James well beaten. However, the slightest of touches from James' fingertips diverted a Parkin effort on to the woodwork. The former England keeper then denied the same player with a parry soon afterwards. The importance of those interventions was underlined after 71 minutes when Jones headed Jamie McAllister's free-kick past Andy Lonergan under pressure from Elliott. The goal lifted City and Adomah struck the woodwork before Lonergan was forced to save from Brett Pitman. Elliott went close late on as Preston hung on.
