Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Queens Park Rangers & Oxford United face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Carabao Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Queens Park Rangers form and stats
QPR have not come this way in the Carabao Cup without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Leyton Orient. Last season their Carabao Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.Two Championship home games so far for Queens Park Rangers, who are yet to win here at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium. Only 2 points so far. QPR have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
QPR drew their last game, also a home match. Barnsley was the opponent, 2-2 the score. Christopher Willock, who plays in attack, was the top performer for the team in that game, scoring a rating of 7.65 (out of 10). Willock served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 4 of 7 times. There was plenty of action in the dying minutes of the game against Barnsley as Charlie Austin's goal in the 90th minute completed a cancellation of 0-2 and secured a draw after 90 minutes.
Before that match, a Championship win away at Middlesbrough.The match schedule is unforgiving for QPR as they have a new game in only four days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Coventry City are visiting.
At Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium, Queens Park Rangers has the goal stats of 3-3 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Oxford United form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Burton Albion in order to reach 2nd round of Carabao Cup. Oxford's mission in Carabao Cup last season failed in the 2nd round.The League One season is young and Oxford United have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 2 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 1 defeat so far.
Oxford United lost away at Bolton Wanderers (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Attacker Matty Taylor got a player rating of 7.83 in the game. "Man of the match" Taylor scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times.
A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Crewe Alexandra.A quick return to home after this game, as Oxford are hosting Lincoln City in the League One only four days away.
2 goals so far away for Oxford United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
Last two meetings between these crews: QPR won one, Oxford United were winners in one and we saw zero draws. one game with over 2,5 goals, one match with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
