QPR host Blackburn in a matchup between two sides struggling for consistency. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, our prediction points toward 1-1 draw. Despite a long injury list, the Hoops have shown resilience at home, averaging 2.0 goals scored per match at Loftus Road and collecting 1.5 points per home game. Their expected goals of 1.52 at home suggests they are creating enough chances, while a 50% away clean-sheet rate shows they can defend when set up compactly.
Blackburn, meanwhile, suffer a major blow with Todd Cantwell suspended, weakening a midfield already short on control. Their form is worrying: just 0.7 points per game overall and 0 wins away from home, with an alarming 80% failure-to-score rate on the road. Defensively, the Riversiders concede 1.6 goals per away match, and their expected goals away of only 0.97 highlights attacking inefficiency.
Historically, Blackburn have dominated this fixture (14 wins from 25), but current form heavily tilts momentum toward QPR, especially given their stronger home metrics. As both sides have been struggling in attack of late, we are tempted to bet on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 14 February 2026 at 15:00.
