QPR vs Cardiff Predictions

• Six of QPR’s eight games have seen under 2.5 goals
• Seven of Cardiff’s eight matches have seen under 2.5 goals
• Both of these sides are scoring less than a goal per game this term
• Cardiff have drawn 1-1 in their last three games

Attacking Flaws to Hold Back Pair

When Cardiff visited QPR on January 1, 2020, things seemed very different. The Bluebirds were thumped 6-1 that day, but expect the rematch to have a very different feel.

Both of these sides have played out their share of low scoring games this season. QPR have seen under 2.5 goals in six of their first eight matches, with those two outliers coming in games where they conceded three.

Meanwhile, Cardiff have seen under 2.5 goals in seven of their eight games and have scored just seven times in that run.

None of QPR’s home games have seen over 2.5 goals so far, as have none of Cardiff’s away trips. Both sides are looking short on goals – averaging 0.75 and 0.88 per game respectively – so we think that under 2.5 goals is the way to go.

QPR come into this one winless in their last seven Championship games. Meanwhile, Cardiff have failed to win any of their last 11 away league games in London (D3 L8). As a result, we see the pair sharing the spoils in a 1-1 draw.
