Preston who have been struggling to score this season bagged three in the first half to seal the points for the home side. Adam Nowland managed to tuck in a cross to set the ball rolling before Agyemang was fouled in the box. Alexander put away the penalty before Sedgwick scored from a right footed volley before half time. Preston had the majority of the first half with nugent hitting the post from 20 yards.
The second half was pretty dour indeed! Agyemang hit the bar early on and coventry came back into the game as Stern John was allowed to enter the six yard box unaided to claim a goal back. The Whites managed to hang on for the victory extending their unbeaten run to 15.
