QPR vs Ipswich Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 19th August 2023

Matchday 3 of the new Championship season sees Ipswich pay QPR a visit at the Loftus Road in what promises to be a gruelling affair.

Placed 16 in the table QPR have amassed three points after two matches. On six points, Ipswich rank one with two matches played this season.

Ipswich have delivered a perfect opening to the season so far, and they will be full of confidence in their pursuit of maximum points.

QPR came away with three points from the latest encounter with Ipswich. It would be a surprise if they fail do to it again, when they face each other this coming Saturday.

QPR have a hard time getting on the scoreboard these days, as they managed a poorly eight goals in their previous ten matches. That is an average of 0.8 goals per game, in which they conceded 17 goals, or 1.7 goals per game. Furthermore, they fought their way to one clean sheets in this run.

Ipswich travel to their next Championship match, averaging a lowly one goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of ten goals, while also conceding 16 goals. That amounts to an average of 1.6 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring one times.

In the latest meeting between QPR and Ipswich, 26 December 2018, Queens P.R. triumphed in a 3-0 win at Loftus Road.

QPR vs Ipswich Prediction

QPR Form

Showing inconsistent form, QPR lost two of their past three matches, going down 4-0 against Watford, before beating Cardiff 1-2. The joy was short-lived, as Norwich proved too strong in a 0-1 defeat. QPR only managed one meagre home win from a possible six at Loftus Road in the Championship. They also drew one and lost four of these six encounters, in which they scored two and conceded nine goals.

Ipswich go into the season with the clear aim of a top half finish, and if they can build some momentum early on, perhaps even throw their hat in the ring for a place in an international tournament.

Ipswich Form

Ipswich look fabulous with three wins on the trot, starting off against Sunderland, who were defeated by 1-2. Then, Bristol Rovers got outclassed in a 2-0 win, before beating Stoke by 2-0. Ipswich, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn one and lost three in their last six away in the Championship.

A top half finish is the dream target for QPR, although keeping their Championship status for another season has to be the priority.

Going forward, QPR and Ipswich are both in decent form, while at the same time being generous in defence. We are confident, both teams will find the back of the net this coming Saturday.
