QPR have won just one of their previous five Championship matches
Coventry’s lead at the top of the table now stands at three points
Recommended bet: Coventry to win
QPR currently find themselves in 12th position having won just one of their last five matches in the Championship.
Despite that, the club remain only four points outside the play-off places and they will be eyeing a positive result against the league leaders.
Coventry started the season like a steam train, but the others are catching up. Since the start of December, the Sky Blues have won just four league games, losing the same amount.
An improvement will be needed when they travel to London on Saturday afternoon.

Team news
QPR will be missing defender Amadou Mbengue due to suspension for the clash against the Championship leaders.
Elsewhere, Kwame Poku and Koki Saito will be missing due to injury issues, along with Jake Clarke-Salter and Ziyad Larkeche.
For Frank Lampard, goalkeeper Oliver Dovin will be absent for this clash. Jack Rudoni is recovering from a hip injury and he will also miss out.
Aside from those two, Lampard has a strong squad to choose from as he looks to get Coventry back to winning ways.
The stats
Earlier this season, Coventry thumped QPR 7-1 in what is still the biggest victory in the second-tier during 2025/26.
Across the previous seven matchups between the two clubs, the Sky Blues have emerged victorious on five occasions.
During that time, QPR have claimed only one victory, with that coming in May 2024.
The home side have conceded 42 league goals this season, with only three teams having a worse defensive record in the Championship.
Coventry are the top scorers in the division, netting an impressive 62 goals across 29 matches. The last time the club scored three goals in a game, however, was back in November during a 3-1 win over Charlton.
Three Coventry players – Ellis Simms, Haji Wright and Brandon Thomas-Asante – have hit double figures for goals this season.
For QPR, only one player has scored ten or more goals this season – Rumarn Burrell.

Prediction
Having scored seven goals against QPR at the start of the season, Lampard will be confident his men can put on another show this weekend.
The Sky Blues have shown their fragilities over the previous few weeks. Is the bid for promotion finally getting to them?
A trip to Loftus Road presents the club with an ideal opportunity to return to winning ways and maintain their three-point advantage over Middlesbrough.
Expect a much tighter game compared to the 7-1 thrashing, but in the end, Coventry can still emerge as winners in this interesting matchup.
