QPR vs Leeds prediction: ENGLAND: Championship betting tips on match 2024-04-25 19:00.
[p]Martà Cifuentes saw his QPR side take a giant step towards securing their Championship status with a 1-0 victory against Preston last time out, but he reiterated post match that “until the job is done, it’s not done.” Sat four points clear of the drop zone, the Hoops now need a maximum of three more points to officially get over the line, something they’ll hope can be wrapped up here to avoid a nervy final day.[/p]
[p]It was no surprise to see Rangers have to grind out that win against North End, with eight of their 13 league victories this season coming by a single goal. The capital club are yet to win a game by 3+ goals, one of only three clubs on that list, having only actually scored 3+ on one occasion this season, so don’t expect a glut of goals when Leeds come to town. [/p]
[p]Leeds brought an end to a three-game winless run (D1, L2) with a dramatic 4-3 success at Middlesbrough on Monday night – a result which propelled them back into the Championship’s automatic promotion spots. The Lilywhites now sit a point clear in second, albeit now having played a game more than third-placed Ipswich.[/p]
[p]United must win to keep the pressure on others in the automatic promotion race who play later over the weekend, but to do so they’ll have to improve on a recent dreadful record at Loftus Road. They have won just one of the last six league H2Hs in the capital (D1, L4), with each of those four defeats coming by a one-goal margin, but boss Daniel Farke will hope to change that given he has won five of his seven personal H2Hs with QPR (D1, L1).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: QPR striker Lyndon Dykes has been booked in three of the last four games, with two of those coming in the final 15 minutes. Crysencio Summerville continues to shine for Leeds with two goals and an assist against Middlesbrough taking him up to 28 goal involvements in the league this season (G19, A9), while he scored the only goal in the reverse fixture.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Despite conceding three on Monday, Leeds still boast the best defensive record in the division, conceding less than a goal a game on average.[/p]
