QPR vs Watford Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• QPR have lost five of their last six matches
• Seven of Watford’s last nine Championship matches have gone over 2.5 goals
• Watford have won and both teams have scored in three of their last four Championship away games

R’s struggles set to continue

QPR are staring down the barrel of relegation from the Championship as they sit second bottom in the division after losing 15 of their first 26 games of the season. The R’s gave up a 2-0 lead against Bournemouth in the FA Cup to lose 3-2 last weekend, deepening their woes.

A shock 0-0 draw with Ipswich aside, the R’s have lost five of their last six and look vulnerable once again as they take on a Watford side that are firmly on the up.

After a slow start to the season, the Hornets are in the play-off race after putting in some much improved performances, particularly on the road.

Valerian Ismael’s men are now just four points off sixth and can carry on their progress with another victory against a poor QPR side.

Watford on the charge

Despite their recent success, Watford do have a habit of conceding, their 36 goals conceded is the second-most in the top half of the Championship.

The Hornets have won and both teams have scored in three of their last four away matches, so take a 2-1 win for the visitors.
