West Bromwich Albion form and stats

When playing at home in the Championship, West Bromwich Albion have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 0 defeats from 4 games. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for WBA.

WBA shared the glory with Preston North End in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. Semi Ajayi, defender, was given a rating of 7.13/10 in that game, top of the team. Ajayi won 15 of 22 duels.

Before that, WBA drew at home versus Derby County.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier WBA matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, one draw and zero defeats (from four games).

There will be little rest for WBA after this match as they are travelling to Cardiff City for a Championship game in only four days.

Queens Park Rangers form and stats

Playing away, Queens Park Rangers have won 2 games, drawn 1 and suffered 1 defeat in the Championship this season.

QPR's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Everton (after extra-time, 6-7 on penalties) that finished 2-2. The attacker Charlie Austin got a match rating of 8.81 in that game. Austin scored two goals and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Bristol City.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of QPR when being an outsider away as they are today, we find two matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing zero and winning one game.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Birmingham City in just four days.

Today's guests are confident travelers having scored 10 goals in 4 league games away this season. QPR's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 7 goals from these trips.
