QPR vs Fulham Predictions

• Five of the last six meetings have witnessed at least three goals.
• The hosts are without a clean sheet across their last 10 matches.
• Fulham are without a clean sheet across their last three outings.

QPR’s playoff aspirations are diminishing

QPR’s hopes of clinching a spot in the playoffs are fading at an alarming rate after a run of six defeats across their previous nine matches and it’s left them two points adrift of a place in the top six. Their main issue has been their lack of defensive solidity as no side currently in the top 15 has conceded more goals than Mark Warburton’s side. The Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium has hardly been a fortress this campaign either and another loss here would see the hosts make it a trio of defeats from their last three home fixtures.

Fulham comes into this one off the back of a 1-0 defeat away to West Bromwich Albion and despite leading the Championship by eight points, they’ll want to continue securing victories and putting it beyond all doubt they get promoted as Champions. In order to do that they’ll need to be a bit more ruthless right from the first whistle as eight of their last nine away league goals have come in the second half.

A game with plenty of goals likely

We’re expecting Champions-elect Fulham to get back to winning ways at the first time of asking here. QPR have been sloppy defensively and they can’t afford to be as unorganised when they welcome the leagues’ top goalscorers at Loftus Road. However, we’re siding with there to be at least three goals scored here, as there have been in five of the previous six meetings between these two teams. A 2-1 away win for Fulham looks like a probable result.
