Southampton have won five of their previous seven matches
QPR currently occupy 13th place in the Championship table
Recommended bet: Southampton to win
Southampton’s strong run of form has seen them enter the race for a Championship play-off position and they will be hoping to keep the momentum going when welcoming QPR to St Mary’s on Tuesday.
The Saints have won five of their last seven matches in all competitions (one on penalties) and they will feel confident of chalking up another success against the Hoops.
QPR have won only three matches in 2026 – one of those victories coming against rock-bottom and now-relegated Sheffield Wednesday – but they are still in the top-six picture with four points the gap to Wrexham in sixth.

Prediction
Southampton enter this contest in a confident mood and they look capable of securing a crucial three points in their quest for Championship promotion.
The Saints are unbeaten in their last four home fixtures and have suffered just one defeat from their last 11 at St Mary’s.
Southampton will have to be wary of QPR, though, with the visitors showing their quality at the end of January when downing leaders Coventry 2-1.
But that victory came at home and it has been a different story for the Hoops on their travels, with just one win from their last nine away fixtures.
With Southampton strong on the south coast and QPR difficult to trust on the road, this looks like a prime opportunity for the Saints to claim the spoils.
