Queens Park Rangers form and stats

Queens Park Rangers have only played one Championship game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 10 wins, 6 draws and 7 defeats from 23 matches.

QPR travelled for their previous game, a trip to Sunderland that ended 2-2. Late drama in the game against Sunderland as Queens Park Rangers were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until Dieng popped out and made it level in the 90th minute. Queens Park Rangers's goalie Dieng played a big part in securing a draw after 90 minutes against Sunderland with a stunning six saves.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how QPR have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won 7 times, drawn 5 and lost 1.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Queens Park Rangers, as the Championship home game vs Rotherham United is only four days away.

Queens Park Rangers has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 2 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Blackpool form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Championship ended in defeat. Last season Blackpool had these away match statistics: Played 23; won 5, drew 9 and lost 9.

Connolly was the last player to score for the away team. Blackpool haven't scored a league goal in the last 261 minutes.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, the home loss versus Swansea City with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Blackpool are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 4 wins, 4 draws and 8 defeats. From a total of 16 matches.

Blackpool have another fixture away in just four nights, a Championship game vs Burnley. A grim timetable for the visiting team!

Blackpool have the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head to head data (for the last ten meetings): Queens Park Rangers won four games, five matches ended with a tie and Blackpool got one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / six
