Prediction: 2-0
QPR
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Preston (2-0) and Wrexham (4-2), Sheffield United will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Queens Park Rangers at their Bramall Lane. The Blades are determined to secure a quick return to the Premier League, but the season is quite long. Femi Seriki is unlikely to feature in Saturday’s clash after suffering a minor injury in the EFL Cup triumph, while both Sam McCallum and Jamie Shackleton remain in the treatment room.
The Hoops, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to WBA, which is yet another reason why we are going to place our bets on the promotion hopefuls. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to the “Steel City”. In their last meeting at Bramall Lane QPR shocked Sheffield United, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Player (Oliver Norwood):
Oliver Norwood is a Reading midfielder who began his youth career at Manchester United. Norwood made his debut for the reserve team against Middlesbrough in November, 2007, but he did not get a chance to play for the first team. After ending his loan spell with Coventry City in 2012, the 180-cm-tall midfielder signed a contract with Huddersfield Town.
Oliver Norwood scored eight goals in 80 league appearances for the club between 2012 and 2014. Later in 2014 he joined Reading for an undisclosed fee and he made his debut for the Royals against Nottingham Forest on 23 August, 2014.
Norwood was born in Burnley, England and he has six caps for England U16 team. He played three games for the U17 team as well, but he then decided to represent Northern Ireland as his heritage is Northern Irish. Norwood made his debut for the Green and White Army on 11 August, 2010, in a 2-0 loss to Montenegro. He replaced Sammy Clingan in the second half of the match.
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.
