Stoke continued their impressive run in the Championship with a 2-0 home victory over basement side Preston.

Goals from Ben Wilmot and Jack McGlynn did the damage as Mark Robins' in-form team claimed a seventh win in their last 10 league games.

Centre-back Wilmot put the hosts ahead with a powerful 29th-minute header from McGlynn's pinpoint cross.

Then United States midfielder McGlynn got in on the scoring act himself with a sweet left-foot strike that doubled the Potters' advantage eight minutes after the restart.

Defeat for the struggling Lilywhites, who remain rooted to the foot of the table, was their fourth in five league games since appointing Graham Alexander as Paul Heckingbottom's successor.
