The72’s writers offer their QPR vs Leicester City prediction ahead of the Championship clash on Saturday.
QPR welcome league leaders Leicester City to Loftus Road on Saturday, in what promises to be another extremely difficult game for the R’s.
Gareth Ainsworth’s side have lost their last five now after losing 2-0 at West Brom in midweek, with QPR remaining in 22nd place of the Championship table.
Leicester City meanwhile remain in 1st after beating Sunderland 1-0 on Tuesday night. Enzo Maresca’s side have won 12 of their opening 13 games and already have a big lead at the top of the table.
Here, a handful of our writers make their predictions for the game…
Luke Phelps
“There’s just no hope for QPR at the minute. It’s a really sorry state that the club are in and I’ve no idea how Ainsworth is still in a job.
“Leicester on the other hand are setting the example for Championship teams. They’re unbelievable to watch and showing no signs of slowing down, so I think this is an obvious win for them, especially with QPR looking like they have no centre-backs for this one.”
QPR vs Leicester City prediction: 0-3
“While QPR aren’t bottom of the table, I don’t think there’s a bigger gulf between two teams in the Championship at the moment. The hosts have been looking dismal and supporter dissatisfaction can’t be much higher, while Leicester City are in storming form at the top of the division.
“It could get ugly if Leicester are on their game again this weekend. They should be able to have total control of this fixture, even away from home.
“It’d be a real feat for QPR to get anything from this, but I’m not giving them much chance to be honest. This should be a routine win for the league leaders and if they’re at their lethal best, they should put a few past the R’s.”
