The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match.

Queens Park Rangers form and stats
The visitors are W3-D5-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Championship. QPR has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.
