QPR Double Chance
QPR produced a coupon-busting 2-1 win at Burnley in their last outing, a victory that should arm them with plenty of confidence ahead of their trip to play Stoke on Saturday. The Hoops have lost just once in four matches in the Championship overall and they will fancy their chances of taking something from a test against a Potters outfit that have lost three on the bounce on home soil. With that considered, the first of our football predictions today recommends backing QPR in the double chance market.
Under 2.5 Goals
When Stoke and QPR last faced off back in September, the sides shared the spoils after a largely uneventful 0-0 draw at Loftus Road and margins could be just as slim when they meet to contest Saturday’s rematch. The Potters have notched only two goals in their last four home tussles combined, while Rangers have scored one or fewer goals in 15 of their last 17 Championship fixtures. With chances likely to be short supply this weekend, our second Stoke vs QPR prediction advises a stake on under 2.5 goals.

Draw odds: 11/5 (3.20) – 31.3%

Stoke are the bookies’ expected winners on Saturday and the implied probability of them harnessing home advantage sits at a 52.4%. Elsewhere, QPR could be of interest at 5/6 (1.83) to make the most of a +1.0 goal handicap, an outcome that has an implied probability of 54.5%.

Stoke vs QPR Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Stoke vs QPR lineups and team news for Saturday’s Championship meeting below.
Stoke
Goalkeeper Matija Sarkic has a muscle problem that could keep him out of action for another while. Defenders Axel Tuanzebe and Ben Wilmot are also injured for The Potters at present. Stoke will also be without the services of key attacker Jacob Brown this weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Stoke: Bonham – Sterling, Jagielka, Fox – However, Smallbone, Pearson, Laurent, Tymon – Gayle, Campbell
QPR
Osman Kakay is listed as QPR's only confirmed absentee at present. Rangers didn't follow the script when they visited Burnley in their last Championship match and their 2-1 win over the Clarets was a major, unexpected boost in their pursuit of survival.
Predicted Lineup for QPR: Dieng – Drewe, Dunne, Dickie, Paal – Adomah, Field, Iroegbunam, Chair – Lowe, Martin
Player to Watch – Jimmy Dunne
Centre-half Jimmy Dunne was a rock at the back for QPR last weekend in The Hoops’ 2-1 win at Burnley. The 25-year-old made two clearances off the line against this old club and removed the ball from danger nine times in total on his return to Turf Moor. Dunne will hope to be just as impactful on Saturday.
