Backing a home win
When we started pondering tips for this game it very quickly became clear that the first thing we were going to do was back Sheffield United to win. The Blades sit atop the Championship table as things stand having won seven of their 11 games so far this season with four of those victories coming in their last five outings. QPR haven't been in bad form either to be fair but they have an utterly awful record against their hosts. Sheffield United have won each of the last five meetings meaning QPR will really need to buck the trend to get any sort of positive result here.
Someone will blank
Our next prediction is a both teams to score bet and we are opting for a ‘no' outcome. Sheffield United drew 1-1 on Saturday but prior to that match they'd seen four games in a row end with at least one side keeping a clean sheet. QPR meanwhile have seen three of their last five matches due be with a ‘nil' in the final score. On top of all that, two of the last three head to head clashes between these sides have seen at least one side fail to score. With the recent form of both sides and the head to head history backing us up, a ‘no' bet feels like the sensible prediction to make.

Can Blades bounce back from Saturday's dropped points?
Both Sheffield United and QPR have ambitions of winning promotion to the promised land this season and the lake of them have made good starts on that journey. The Blades are top but they are only six points clear of QPR in fifth. The quality on show should give us a good spectacle but the points will be hugely valuable too with the outcome either seeing Sheffield United pull away from those lower ranking playoff sides or get sucked towards the chasing pack.
Sheffield United are flying high in the table right now but they did slip up at the weekend to drop two points. That was always likely to happen at some point with so many injuries. Jack O'Connell is just one of eight missing for this match.
Sheffield United Predicted lineup – Foderingham, Egan, Norrington-Davies, Basham, Baldock, Berge, Norwood, Khadra, Doyle, McBurnie, Ndiaye
QPR have their work cut out to get a result here but with a reasonably healthy squad to choose from they have a better chance. Only Taylor Richards and Robert Dickie are expected to be out for this match.
QPR Predicted lineup – Dieng, Laird, Balogun, Clarke-Salter, Paal, Iroegbuna, Fields, Chair, Iroegbunam, Roberts, Willock
