Blackpool vs QPR prediction and top betting tips

This is a huge game at the bottom of the Championship table. If QPR win, they're almost guaranteed to hold onto their status as a second tier club. Lose though and their run in will get very edgy. Who do we see coming out on top as the sides face off? Find out with our Blackpool vs QPR match preview with free tips, predictions and odds mentioned along the way.

Blackpool vs QPR Prediction 1: Draw

We labelled this as a big game where a win either way would be massive for the context of the relegation run in. Well, we think we'll learn little come full time on Tuesday night because we are predicting a draw. Yes, QPR won for the first time under Gareth Ainsworth last time out and, yes, Blackpool are winless in four but their is some important factors missing from those data throwaways; that's the home and away factors. Blackpool are winless in four but they're unbeaten in six at home. QPR meanwhile are winless on the road in their last seven. Amongst those runs, Blackpool have drawn four games and QPR have drawn three. Share those spoils again, lads.

Blackpool vs QPR Prediction 2: Under 2.5 goals

The second of our football betting tips for this game comes from the total goals market. Now, generally, we like to use stats to inform our predictions but here we've gone a tad rogue but let us tell you why…unless of course you've watched a good proportion of the football Mick McCarthy and Gareth Ainsworth's teams tend to play. You will have come to expect a good old fashion dust up with blood, sweat and tears on the pitch but total football and loads of goals? We're dubious. Four of the last five head to head meetings between these two have gone under the 2.5 threshold as well, so the fixture has previous for being on the dull side.

QPR odds: 5/3 (2.67) – 46%

You can see just how hard this clash is to predict by the bookies offering the exact same price for both the home and away win. That will likely see bettors land on both sides of the game depending on how they assess the situation and, like ourselves, there will be more than a few who are enticed by the draw!

Check out the predicted lineups ahead of Blackpool vs QPR

Blackpool

Blackpool won't be focussed on what happened at the weekend (a 2-0 loss to Bristol City) and will instead look at how strong they've been at home. Expect them to lineup with a couple of deep lying midfielders as they look to suffocate the middle of the park whilst looking to Jerry Yates up top to grab them a goal.

Predicted lineup – Maxwell, Thompson, Thorniley, Nelson, Gabriel, Carey, Connolly, Bowler, Garbutt, Madine, Yates

QPR

Gareth Ainsworth was in a buoyant mood after seeing QPR grab a first win under his tutelage on Saturday and, despite the quick turnaround in fixtures, anything more than one or two changes to the XI are highly unlikely here. Kenneth Paal and Ilias Chair are amongst several injured players set to miss out.

Predicted lineup – Dieng, Dickie, Dunne, Field, Dozzell, Drewe, Kakay, Lowe, Iroegbunam, Dykes, Martin

Player to watch

If Blackpool are to get anything from this game then you fell they'll have to keep things tight at the back, which is why we're calling out Curtis Nelson as a key player. The centre back has played every minute of the Seasiders' last five games with each of the home games in that run seeing them keep clean sheets.
