Burnley to Win to Nil
Burnley can finally seal the Championship title this weekend with a victory over QPR and we don’t expect the impressive Clarets to let the opportunity slip in front of their own supporters. Rangers have lost four of their last five away fixtures on the road, and they have failed to score in four of their last six tussles overall in the second tier. Burnley have gone four matches Turf Moor without conceding a goal and the first of our football predictions today back them to win to nil again against their struggling visitors.
Half Time Result: Burnley
With the chance to seal the title on offer this weekend, we expect Burnley to put on a bit of a show at Turf Moor on Saturday and backing the hosts to have their noses in front at half time seems to fit the bill. QPR have the worst first-half record on the road in the entire division this season and they have been behind in 12 of their 21 away games in the Championship since August. That record makes for grim reading from their perspective, and our second Burnley vs QPR prediction backs their dismal trend to continue.

Let's take a closer look at the latest markets, Burnley – QPR odds and probability figures ahead of Saturday’s meeting below.
Burnley odds: 37/100 (1.37) – 73%
Draw odds: 39/10 (4.90) – 20.4%
QPR odds: 7/1 (8.0) – 12.5%
Champions-elect Burnley, unsurprisingly, are the bookies’ expected winners on Saturday and the implied probability of home win currently sits at a huge 73%. Over 2.5 goals meanwhile is on the table at 4/6 (1.67), an outcome that has an implied probability of 60%. A 2-0 win in favour of the Clarets is priced at 5/1 (6.0) in the correct score stakes, making it one of the narrowest options in there.
Burnley vs QPR Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Burnley vs QPR lineups and team news for Saturday’s Championship meeting below.
Burnley
Burnley's treatment room is virtually deserted at present, though key attacker Nathan Tella is out of action with a hamstring complaint. Burnley were held to a 2-2 draw at Rotherham in midweek, though that result sets them up nicely for title glory on Saturday.
Predicted Lineup for Burnley: Peacock-Farrell – Roberts, Harwood-Bellis, Beyer, Maatsen – Cullen, Cork, Brownhill – Manuel, Zaroury, Barnes
QPR
Osman Kakay is listed as QPR's only confirmed absentee at present. Rangers picked up a point at home to Norwich City on Wednesday evening, though they did take an early lead against the Canaries before relinquishing that advantage. QPR are still just one point clear of the drop zone.
Predicted Lineup for QPR: Dieng – Drewe, Dunne, Clarke-Salter, Paal – Loew, Field, Iroegbunam, Chair – Dykes, Martin
Player to Watch – Ian Maatsen
When Burnley beat QPR 3-0 back in December at Loftus Road, left-back Ian Maatsen was a central figure, and even netted one of his team’s goals during his rounded display. The Chelsea loanee has scored four times and created another six goals in the Championship this term.
