  • Three of QPR’s four home league games have gone under 2.5 goals

  • Six of the last eight meetings between these two teams have seen two or fewer goals

  • Recommended bet: Under 2.5 goals

Just one point separates London rivals QPR and Millwall in the Championship after nine matches, with both sides in the thick of the early battle for the play-off places.

The Hoops sit sixth, two places above Millwall, which is an excellent achievement given that they failed to win any of their opening three games and endured a 7-1 hiding away at Coventry during that time.

Julien Stephan’s side have gone six games unbeaten since that heavy defeat to the Sky Blues, winning on four occasions, and will be hoping that the rich vein of form continues against Millwall.

The Lions, meanwhile, have lost only one of their last five Championship clashes and are hot on the heels of QPR despite also enduring a 4-0 defeat at the hands of high-flying Coventry.

The pair would love to return from the international break with maximum points and it could take a moment of brilliance at Loftus Road to unlock two evenly-matched sides.

Team news

QPR are still dealing with a number of long-term absentees including midfield maverick Ilias Chair and tricky wideman Kwame Poku.

Goalkeeper Joe Walsh and defenders Jake Clarke-Salter and Ziyad Larkeche are also still expected to be missing for the hosts, but Amadou Salif Mbengue will be welcomed back from suspension.

Dan McNamara, Lukas Jensen, Alfie Doughty, Casper De Norre and Daniel Kelly remain on the treatment table for Millwall.

The stats

QPR have not lost any of their four home league games this season, recording wins over Charlton and Stoke in between draws with Preston and Oxford.

Millwall have drawn each of their last three away games after 90 minutes.

The Lions have lost only one of their last five meetings with QPR, winning on three occasions.

Six of Millwall’s last nine matches in all competitions have featured two or fewer goals.

Three of QPR’s last four Championship clashes have gone under 2.5 goals.

Six of the last eight meetings between these two teams have seen two or fewer goals.

Prediction

These two teams have both made promising starts to the Championship season and they will be looking to continue where they left off before the international break.

QPR stretched their unbeaten run to six with a 2-1 win at Bristol City, some achievement considering they are still missing some key attacking players, while Millwall signed off with an impressive 3-0 victory at home to West Brom.

However, this could be a tactical affair in which the pair cancel one another out for large periods and rely on a moment of quality to inspire them to victory.

Each of QPR’s four home league games this season have featured two or fewer goals, with them keeping back-to-back clean sheets at Loftus Road against Stoke and Oxford, while Millwall’s last five away fixtures in all competitions have gone under 2.5 goals.
