QPR to Win

Reason for tip

Queens Park Rangers look well placed to capitalise on Blackburn Rovers’ travel sickness. Blackburn have failed to win any of their last seven away games, losing four of the last six, and have blanked in four of their previous five on the road. QPR, by contrast, have won six of their last eight at Loftus Road and average over two goals per game at home against bottom-half sides. With a 12-point cushion in the table, the hosts hold the stronger hand.

QPR 1-0

Reason for tip

Goals are rarely flowing in Blackburn matches, with 19 of their 31 Championship games staying under 2.5 goals. Their struggles in front of goal away from home point to a tight affair rather than a shootout. QPR have edged three of the last four meetings by a single goal, and given Blackburn’s recent attacking woes, a narrow 1-0 home win fits both the form and the wider trends.

QPR to pile more misery on Blackburn

“QPR should be backed to beat Blackburn at Loftus Road on Saturday. The visitors have lost four times in their last six away games and QPR boss Julien Stephan will be hopeful of getting a result over Damien Johnson’s side.

They are nine places and 12 points above Blackburn in the table. The hosts, who are 13th with 12 wins, eight draws and 11 losses, face visitors who are 22nd with eight wins, eight draws and 15 defeats.

Blackburn lost 2-0 to Norwich last weekend in their last Championship outing and could not break their losing habit. They were priced as 27/10 outsiders to win the game, but would have been hoping to be more competitive than the final margin of defeat. It was Blackburn’s first defeat under Damien Johnson.

QPR are hitting their stride at home, having been winners in six of their last eight Championship games.

They have been prolific in attack at home, scoring an average of 2.14 goals a game in their seven Championship matches against other bottom-half teams this season. In their four games against sides in the bottom six, they are averaging 2.50 goals a game.

Backing Blackburn’s opponents during their current run of four defeats in six Championship games would have resulted in a profit of 2.65 units.

The visitors are out of form. Blackburn have not won any of their last seven Championship away games, with four reverses in their last six matches on the road.

The visitors are struggling to score, with Blackburn failing to find the net in four of their last five Championship away games. They have been disappointing up front on the road this season, averaging just 0.80 goals a game from their 12 goals in 15 matches.

The visitors have looked vulnerable at the back, with Blackburn failing to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last eight Championship games.

A 1-0 home success for QPR appeals in the correct-score market. There have been under 2.5 goals in 19 of Blackburn’s 31 Championship outings this season, and QPR have won three of the last four meetings with Blackburn by a single goal.”
