Queens Park Rangers form and stats

The total Championship statistics playing at home this season for Queens Park Rangers are 8-6-3 (wins-draws-losses). Two draws in a row at home now for Queens Park Rangers.

The spoils were shared in QPR's previous game, also at home. Visiting Hull City (placed 20th) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Chair, who plays in attack, was the declared top player for the side in that game, receiving a rating of 7.3 (out of 10). Chair scored one goal, hit one key pass and had 31 successful passes (of 35 total).

Heartbreak before that as Queens Park Rangers lost 0-2 at Millwall's place.

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 twelve games) they have won six times, drawn five and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Queens Park Rangers as they are travelling to their away game against Blackburn Rovers in the Championship. That match is three days after this one.

Queens Park Rangers are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 24 goals in 17 games. From these home matches, Queens Park Rangers have conceded only 14 goals.

Blackpool form and stats

3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Blackpool playing as the away team in the Championship this season. It's three draws from Blackpool's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.

Blackpool has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Cardiff City for a 1-1 draw.

A loss against AFC Bournemouth was the result prior to that, in a home game.

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

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Reading in just three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Blackpool have scored 18 goals in 15 league games away. Blackpool have conceded 20 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head
