Blackburn to see off QPR at Ewood Park

Blackburn Rovers vs QPR - 28/01/2020

Blackburn to see off QPR at Ewood Park
2660

Following their emphatic 5-0 win away from home at Hillsborough against Sheffield Wednesday, Blackburn Rovers will no doubt be in confident mood as they prepare for the visit of QPR at Ewood Park for Tuesday night’s Championship clash.

That impressive result ended a sequence of 5 matches without a win for Tony Mowbray’s side and not only has it lifted Rovers up into 11th place but has also pushed them to within 6 points of the top six ahead of the midweek action.

Another three points for Blackburn here could see the hosts press further claims for a possible play-off spot, and having lost just twice at home all season to date this could be a real possibility.

Blackburn bring a 9-match unbeaten run at home into this clash which includes 4 wins and 5 draws with the victories being achieved against Sheffield Wednesday, Barnsley, Brentford and Derby County.

Rovers also hold a good record at home against QPR as the hosts are unbeaten in their last 8 meetings against their visitors at Ewood Park.

QPR’s inconsistent season continued last time out in the Championship, when, against the odds, The R’s pulled off a 1-0 home win against 2nd placed Leeds United at Loftus Road, which came off the back of a 3-1 loss away at Brentford.

You’re never quite sure what you’re going to get from this QPR outfit who had also registered a recent and emphatic 6-1 thrashing of Cardiff City at home, but had suffered 3 defeats from their previous 4 matches before that!

If we’re to try and make sense of it all, perhaps the key lies in QPR’s recent wins in the Championship; out of the 4 wins the visitors have gained in their last 9 matches, 3 of these were registered on home turf, while their solitary away win came in the shape of a 2-0 win at out-of-sorts Birmingham City.

Dig a little deeper and you’ll find that QPR have lost their last 3 away matches on the trot with defeats at Barnsley 5-3, Reading 1-0 and Brentford 3-1, while picking up just 1 win out of their last 7 matches on their travels.

With these poor recent results away from home in mind, Blackburn Rovers therefore look the more likely for the points here on Tuesday night.
