Prediction: 0-2
QPR
Peterborough and QPR, the two Championship sides, face each other at Weston Homes Stadium in the FA Cup round 4. The Posh are fighting hard to secure the Championship survival, meaning that they will be with one eye on the league game with Cardiff City. Dan Butler is sidelined with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team. The Hoops, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 4-0 win over Reading.
The capital club are high on spirits ahead of the FA Cup game, and we predict that they are going to give fans yet another reason for celebration. In their last meeting in a competitive match QPR defeated Peterborough 2-1, which is yet another fact why away win should be considered. Both Seny Dieng and Andre Gray are on international duty, while Morocco international Ilias Chair is back to contention.
Highlighted Player (David Cornell):
Born in Waunarlwydd, Wales on March 28, 1991, David Cornell is a goalkeeper who plays for Northampton Town in the League Two. The 180-cm tall shot-stopper is a product of the Swansea City football school, but he did not make any appearances for the Swans at senior level.
Cornell played for the likes of Port Talbot Town, Hereford United, St. Mirren, and Portsmouth on loan before signing a permanent contract with Oldham Athletic in the 2015/2016 season. In the summer of 2016, he joined Northampton Town on a two-year deal.
Speaking of his international career, David Cornell has three caps with the Wales U21 team, but he has yet to earn a call-up for the senior team. The Northampton Town goalkeeper wears the number 1 jersey, and his preferred foot is right. He has a contract with the Cobblers until June 30, 2020.
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.
