Draw no Bet – Reading
The last 5 games between the two sides have only once resulted in the outcome that losses this bet – QPR's win. Furthermore, this victory came all the way back in 2018. Since then, there have been 2 Reading victories and 2 draws.
Under 2.5 Goals
Both sides’ games usually end up with a small number of goals, and that’s why we are backing the under 2.5 wager. This bet has hit a 60% success rate in both clubs’ last 5 matches. In Reading's last 8 games, only 2 have had more than 2.5 goals. With QPR, the number is 3 out of 7.
BTTS – Yes
What leads us to believe that both teams will score is that QPR has found the net in 8 of its last 10 games, and Reading has conceded in 6 out of its last 10 games. This rate makes the BTTS bet very likely.

Reading vs QPR: How has the recent form of both sides been?
To evaluate the game in hand better, we need to get into both team’s shoes and understand their intentions coming into this match.
It's been a long 8 years since the last time the Royals got to perform in the Premier League. With new coach Veljko Paunovic doing a fantastic job on the squad, this period of top-flight drought might be coming to an end. Getting a direct promotion is out of the picture with so few games left and an 11 points gap.
Currently sitting at the 6th spot, Reading's only chance is to win the Championship play-offs. However, Bournemouth is closing in on the top 6, so every single point is precious for Paunovic and his squad. The game vs QPR is one of the few games left versus a bottom half of the table squad. Getting the three points on the 20th of March will be crucial for the Royals.
On the other hand, QPR has had a fairly average campaign. Their second year with Mark Warburton has netted the same result so far. In the context of this game, what’s important is that the Rangers have no incentive regarding the final placement. They are safe from relegation and way too behind to challenge the top 6, so QPR is really playing out the rest of the season.
