Away End
With a capacity of 23,404, Deepdale is the 9th-smallest ground in the Sky Bet Championship this season.
City supporters will be located in the Bill Shankly Kop. This area of the stadium is shared between home and away supporters.
Preston North End’s most famous player, Sir Tom Finney, unveiled his signature ‘Splash’ statue in 2004 which was inspired from a photograph taken at a waterlogged Stamford Bridge in a match versus Chelsea in 1956. Around the statue are a number of special bricks forming the ‘Walk of Fame’ with the bricks occupying a combination of supporters and ex-PNE players’ names.
