Burnley vs QPR Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Burnley have kept a clean sheet in each of their last four home games
• Burnley average 0.62 goals conceded per game at Turf Moor
• QPR have failed to score in four of their last six games

QPR could go down

The suggestion that QPR are in serious danger of going down would’ve been laughable when the Rs went top of the league under then-manager Mick Beale after 17 games, but 26 games later, the West London side sit just one point outside of the relegation zone with three games left to play.

QPR have won just one league game since a 1-0 win away at Preston in mid-December, and more recently have won just two points from their last seven league games. Gareth Ainsworth was brought in to steady the ship, but the Rs simply don’t score enough goals. They have failed to score in four of their last six games, and now face a visit to a Burnley side who have kept a clean sheet in each of their last four home games. As a result, a prediction for Burnley to win to nil on Saturday looks best here.

Burnley are unbeatable

Vincent Kompany’s Burnley side have been incredible in their pursuit of the Championship title this season, having lost just two of their 42 games so far. A big part of this has been a very strong defensive structure, as the Clarets have the best defensive record in the league, and average just 0.62 goals conceded per game at Turf Moor.

Due to the hosts’ imperious defensive structure, and with them having scored two or more goals in nine of their last ten home games, a correct score prediction of Burnley to win 2-0 stands out for this one.
