Comment (by dhanendran):

 We don't have any specific `cap` for previewing a post. If we enable
 `edit_post` then `contributor` may edit the approved post and it may
 published on scheduled time before reviewed it again.

 So the possible solution would be, we can add additional condition while
 showing the `preview` link and post preview `cap` change.
