They go into the match in desparate need of a win having endured a terrible season which could see them finish as low as 17th in the Premier League table.
To showcase just how long it's been since the Lilywhites have won a trophy, Domino's has unveiled a digital billboard outside their home ground.
It displays a huge figure playfully showing the number of pizzas delivered in the UK and Ireland since 2008 - the club's last trophy win.
It totals well over a billion pizzas (more than 1,569,226,205) – enough pizza to cover the stadium 25,873 times.

The billboard was unveiled as today marks 17 years, two months and twenty-four days - or 6,279 days - since they last lifted a major prize.
Tottenham's last trophy came following a 2-1 win over Chelsea in the 2008 League Cup final.
A spokesperson for Domino's said: "We're not taking sides, but if Spurs deliver in Bilbao, we'll happily reset the counter to zero.
'We always deliver– now it's their turn to do the same in the final.

Man Utd vs Spurs - Europa League final: Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream info for Bilbao clash
And they'll be doubly hoping for success tonight, as a trophy in the cabinet would allow them to justifiably claim they've had a 'better' season than rivals Arsenal.
The Gunners fought until the late stages of the Premier League title race as well as the Champions League, before being eliminated in the semi-finals by Paris Saint Germain earlier this month.
But Mikel Arteta's side will end the season with nothing – even when they finish runners-up in the league, compared to Tottenham's bottom-half place.
To make matters worse, former talisman Harry Kane – Spurs' most successful striker of the modern era – just picked up his first major team trophy as a player.
He was part of the Bayern Munich side which recently clinched the Bundesliga title, crowning them champions of Germany for the 34th time.

Premier League clubs in the race to sign Newcastle duo with Magpies set for overhaul after securing Champions League qualification
Two Newcastle midfielders could be on their way out of St James' Park this summer amid interest from Premier League sides. The Magpies secured Champions League qualification on the final day of the Premier League season and will be keen to bolster their squad after struggling to deal with the demands of domestic and European football during the 2023-24 campaign. Having failed to break into Eddie Howe 's settled starting side, several first team stars are expected to depart the club this summer. Among them include the likes of Sean Longstaff and Joe Willock, who started eight and 11 matches in the Premier League respectively. Newly promoted side Leeds United are showing interest in Longstaff, who failed to register a goal or an assist in his 25 appearances in the top flight. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace are among the clubs keen on Willock, who fared slightly better with two assists in his 32 outings. Elsewhere, Leeds also admire Shea Charles of Southampton and have asked about Udinese defender Jaka Bijol. Charles made 44 appearances on loan in the Championship with Sheffield Wednesday and has earned three senior international caps for Northern Ireland.

Wrexham line up move for Tottenham star as Phil Parkinson looks to strengthen his squad for the Championship
Wrexham want Ben Davies despite Tottenham exercising their option to extend the defender's contract by 12 months at the weekend. Davies has been a Spurs player since 2014 and he featured in 28 games under Ange Postecoglou last season, despite not being a member of the manager's first-choice XI. Davies has played 358 games for Tottenham in total, operating both as a left back and a central defender. He is a popular member of the dressing room and especially close to captain Son Heung-min. Davies recently saw his contract extended until June 2026, which means Wrexham would likely need to pay Spurs a modest transfer fee to land him this summer. Tottenham's willingness to let Davies leave could depend on whether or not they are successful in their attempts to sign Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite. Spurs are expected to formalise their interest in 22-year-old Branthwaite next week. Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson looks set for a busy summer following his side's promotion from League One to the Championship. Davies has never played below the top tier of English football, having been a Premier League player for his entire club career to date. The 32-year-old made 71 Premier League appearances for Swansea between 2012 and 2014. He has played a further 242 Premier League games for Spurs.

Harvey Elliott loves Liverpool but doesn't want to ‘waste years' on sidelines
The 22-year-old was limited to just 18 appearances during the last Premier League season, starting only twice as Liverpool went on to win their 20th title. Elliott was named in Lee Carsley's under-21 squad for the European Championship in Slovakia where England get their campaign under way against Czech Republic on Thursday. The boyhood Reds fan was left in tears during Liverpool's on-pitch title celebrations, which may hint that he sees his future away from Anfield. Asked whether he is considering leaving the club he loves, he replied: 'It's just a situation that me and the team have to have a conversation about because I'm coming into an age now where I'm 22, I'm going to be 23 next season. 'I don't really want to be wasting years on my career because it's a short career. You don't know what's going to happen. 'I need to reflect. I need to see if I'm content in doing what I'm doing and how can I improve as a player because that's the most important thing. 'I just want to improve and be the best possible version of myself. If that's to go somewhere else, then it's a decision that I'm going to have to make and I just need to see what happens. 'Nothing makes me want to leave. I love the club, I love the fans, the team. I support them as well. But most importantly, it's just about what's best for my career.' Elliott's high point of the campaign came during Liverpool's smash-and-grab 1-0 first-leg Champions League victory over Paris St Germain. After facing a barrage of pressure at Parc Des Princes, Elliott climbed off the bench in the 86th minute and swept home the winner just 47 seconds later to put Liverpool in the driving seat. Elliott thought that moment would ignite his season, so he was slightly disappointed to find his subsequent game time limited. Asked if he expected he would get more minutes, he added: 'I thought so. I thought PSG was kind of a high for me, especially with the Premier League game coming up a few days later. 'I thought it was an opportunity for me to get a start and showcase what I can do and just get a nice run out but the boss is the boss. 'He's the man in charge. He's the reason why we've won the league, because of his decisions. His decisions were not to start me, I can't complain.' Elliott was crowned a title winner as Liverpool finished a convincing 10 points in front of second-placed Arsenal. Despite his Premier League medal, Elliott thinks it has been a difficult season for him personally after also suffering a fractured foot in September. He said: 'It's been a bit different. The game time hasn't been as much. It's been a difficult season I would say. It's been a season where, especially in the Premier League, we've dominated and coming into a team that's doing so well. 'After my injury, I think it was always going to be hard but I'd hoped I would have got some more opportunities but football is football.'
