Forecast: Queens Park Rangers seeks to secure their fourth consecutive victory as they face off against West Bromwich Albion.
QPR pulled themselves out of the relegation zone in the Championship by clinching three consecutive victories at the end of February and the beginning of March. Their pivotal 2-1 win against league leaders Leicester saw goals from Ilias Chair and Sinclair Armstrong granting QPR an unexpected two-goal lead at the King Power Stadium. Despite Ben Nelson’s goal for Leicester, it wasn’t enough to stage a comeback. With nine points from their recent trio of games, QPR currently holds 19th place, just above the relegation zone on goal difference. Interestingly, the team has shown stronger performance on the road compared to their home games this season. To bolster their squad and avoid relegation to League One in May, QPR made several loan signings during the January transfer window.
Expected QPR Lineup:
Begovic; Dunne, Cook, Clarke-Salter, Paal; Hayden, Field, Willock, Andersen, Chair; Armstrong
West Bromwich Albion has managed to reignite their hopes of securing a top-six finish after a 2-0 defeat to Southampton led by Russell Martin on February 16. They garnered seven points in their last three Championship matches, including a significant victory against Coventry. Mikey Johnston, on loan from Celtic, displayed a stunning performance by scoring his third goal out of three shots on target for West Brom against Coventry. Grady Diangana also contributed with a goal. Despite Coventry’s goal from a penalty kick, West Brom held on to clinch the victory, marking their 12th win out of 18 home matches at The Hawthorns this season. Tom Fellows, a promising young player, provided the assist for Diangana’s goal, demonstrating his potential within the team. With new owner Shilen Patel expected to attend their upcoming match against QPR, West Brom aims to replicate their previous narrow victory against them in November 2022.
Expected West Bromwich Albion Lineup:
Palmer; Furlong, Kipre, Pieters, Townsend; Yokuslu, Mowatt, Fellows, Johnston, Swift; Wallace
Expert Tips for Queens Park Rangers vs West Bromwich Albion:
