QPR
Bristol City and QPR face each other in a highly-anticipated Championship game at Ashton Gate Stadium. The Robins have been playing some high-scoring games of late, with the team playing out a 2-2 draw with Hull City, while losing to Hudersfield Town (2-3). Bristol City are eager to emerge triumphant in their last game of the year, but they face a difficult task in the midweek fixture. Both Joe Williams and Nathan Baker are sidelined with injuries, but they should be the only absentees in the home team.
The Hoops, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Stoke City. Queens Park Rangers are eager to climb to the playoffs berth, and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we believe that both teams to score betting option should be considered. All Lyndon Dykes, Lee Wallace, Jordy de Wijs, and Sam McCallum are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Nathan Baker):
Nathan Baker is a product of Aston Villa football academy. The left-footed defender played 115 games for Aston Villa in the league and it has to be noted that he scored only goal for the club during his spell at Villa Park. Nathan Baker is used as both centre-back and left-back and the 189-cm-tall footballer is very good in the air.
Nathan Baker was born in Worcester, England on April 23, 1991 and he currently plays for Bristol City in the Championship. After ending his loan spell with the Robins, he signed a permanent deal with the club on July 28, 2017 for an undisclosed fee. Nathan Baker has yet to make his debut for England national team, but he has three caps for England U21 team.
Nathan Baker made his debut for the under-21 squad against Iceland back in 2011. The English footballer has a contract with Bristol City which expires on June 30, 2021.
Highlighted Team (QPR):
Queens Park Rangers are well known as QPR. The capital club was founded in 1886 and Loftus Road Stadium is QPR’s ground. Loftus Road Stadium was opened in 1904 and the capacity of the venue 18,439. However, it has to be noted that no less than 35,353 spectators watched the game between QPR and Leeds on 27 April, 1974.
The Hoops finished the 1975/1976 First Division campaign in second position in the standings, just behind champions Liverpool. This is considered the club’s biggest success, but Queens Park Rangers made it to the FA Cup final in 1982 as well.
QPR were beaten by fellow capital club Tottenham Hotspur in the title game, but they did well to lift the League Cup trophy in 1967. Queens Park’s main rivals are Brentford, Chelsea and Fulham, but other clubs based in London are considered QPR’s rivals as well. The colour of QPR’s shirts is blue and white.
