QPR vs Coventry Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 30th September 2023

QPR take on Coventry for a match in the Championship this coming Saturday at Loftus Road.

QPR are 19th in the rankings with eight points after eight matches played , whereas Coventry rank 18th in the Championship on eight points.

With three defeats from their last six games, the mood around the QPR camp could probably be a lot better. They need to up their game or prepare for more disappointment, when facing Coventry on their home ground.

QPR are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net eight times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.8 goals per game, as they conceded 14 goals. They managed three clean sheets in these matches.

Coventry managed a bearable 14 goals from their past ten games, creating an average of 1.4 goals per game. They conceded 12 goals in total, and while claiming three clean sheets, they conceded 1.2 goals an average per game.

Betting on Coventry winning to nil in their latest meetings with QPR would have been a sound choice. They ended up winning 3-0 in April 2023 and 2-0 in November 2022, respectively.

QPR vs Coventry Prediction

QPR Form

It could have been better, it could have been worse for QPR, who have two points to show from their last three matches. They came up short in a 1-3 defeat against Sunderland, followed by a 1-1 draw against Swansea. They picked up a point again in the latest round after a 0-0 draw with Birmingham. In their last six Championship home matches, QPR didn't claim a single win. In stead, they've drawn two and lost four, while scoring three and conceding 11 goals.

Coventry Form

Coventry have been a tad mediocre in their last three matches where a win has failed to come their way. Against Hull, they gained a point in a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Cardiff, who ran out 3-2 winners. Lately, they managed to steal a point in a 1-1 with Huddersfield. Coventry managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Championship. On top of winning once they also drew three as well as losing two, while scoring eight time and letting in seven.

Both QPR and visitors Coventry seem to struggle just a wee bit much right now, with keeping a clean sheet. We go out on a limb here and suggest that, both teams will find the back of the net.

QPR have a record of two wins, two draws and four defeats in the Championship this season. Coventry have one win, five draws and two defeats in the Championship.
