QPR vs Derby Predictions

• QPR have won six of their last seven Championship home games.
• The Hoops have conceded in four of their last five on the road, though.
• Derby have taken just one point from their last five away games, scoring in four of them.

Rams can score in defeat at Loftus Road

QPR lost for the third time in four Championship fixtures at Coventry on Tuesday, but they should fare better back at Loftus Road when they face a struggling Derby outfit.

The visiting Rams picked up a valuable point against Oxford United in their midweek fixture, but they haven’t won a league away game since the start of November, and four of their last five trips have ended in defeat.

The Hoops, meanwhile, have won six of their last seven home games in the Championship, so they are justified favourites to boost their play-off prospects on Friday.

That being said, they have conceded in each of their last five at home and Derby, for all their struggles, have scored in fourof their last five away days. Two of these have been 2-1 defeats, and QPR have won by the same scoreline in three of their last five at home, so backing QPR to win and both teams to score alongside a 2-1 correct score prediction appeals.
