Only a few games have been played in the Championship so far, with Sheffield Wednesday placed 24th and Queens Park Rangers sitting in the 10th position.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Sheffield Wednesday form and stats
A Championship draw at home so far for Sheffield Wednesday. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 7 draws and 9 defeats from 23 matches.
Sheffield Wednesday are confident in defense, having played 180 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
In their previous game, the manager G. Monk led his Sheffield Wednesday to a defeat in the Carabao Cup match away at Fulham. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Hillsborough Stadium. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Watford that ended 0-0.
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 Sheffield have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won one time, drawn three and lost six.
At Hillsborough Stadium, Sheffield Wednesday has the goal stats of 0-0 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.
Queens Park Rangers form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Championship ended in defeat. Last season Queens Park Rangers had these away match statistics: Played 23; won 7, drew 5 and lost 11.
Queens Park Rangers's last game was the home draw against Middlesbrough (1-1). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Coventry City wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.
QPR are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is five wins, four draws and five defeats. From a total of 14 matches.
It's early days yet, but Queens Park Rangers has scored 2 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
Head 2 Head
Sheffield-Queens Park Rangers H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Sheffield Wednesday four wins, Queens Park Rangers four wins, two draws. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Sheffield Wednesday missing players
