Coventry vs QPR Predictions

• Coventry have dropped five places since matchday 17.
• QPR boast a 43% win rate in league games as pre-match outsiders.
• QPR boss Mark Warburton won three of his four personal H2Hs with Coventry.

Sky Blues are running out of steam

While Coventry posted a dominant 4-1 win last time out, that was against an arguably League One quality side in Peterborough, and it is likely they will struggle here against promotion hopefuls QPR.

Last weekend’s win ended a six-game winless run of league games for the hosts, though the fact remains that they have beaten QPR just once across the last five meetings.

Coventry made a brilliant start to this campaign and were as high as third place after 11 matchdays. However, their play-off ambitions are slowly but surely waning as they have dropped six league places since then.

The ‘R’s’ are on a roll

Only fellow play-off contenders Bournemouth and Stoke have beaten QPR across their last 12 games and their current four game winning run in all competitions will surely inspire confidence ahead of this clash.

Manager Mark Warburton knows this opposition well after four prior meetings, three of which saw his side on the day score 2+ goals and win. Conversely, Coventry boss Mark Robins hasn’t really left a mark on QPR across his nine personal meetings with them (W1, D1, L7).

All in all, I predict an away win. Considering the amazing price on a QPR success, I am going to back them in the draw no bet market, which will add a layer of security whilst maintaining value.
