Preston North End will play host to Queens Park Rangers in their next Championship match, both hoping to return to winning ways. Heading into this clash, Preston are 16th, a place behind QPR in the standings with just four games remaining. Find below our prediction.

Preston are coming off a 2-1 defeat away to Leeds United. That match was settled by the 15th minute, as Leeds outscored the Lilywhites to keep their title charge going.

Preston, meanwhile, are left seven points above the drop zone, having gone winless in the last four league matches. In those four matches, they conceded twice three times, but failed to score once.

QPR, on their part, are coming into this game seeking to rise after a 1-1 draw with Bristol at home. They couldn’t build on the earlier 3-1 away win at Oxford United and are now left with one win in nine league matches.

Four more points on their current tally of 50 points will secure QPR’s survival, but this recent run doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence.

The visitors will be eyeing a second straight away win but lost six times in the seven matches coming before this outing. Marti Cifuentes’ men will be confident coming into this game after winning all their last three matches against Preston.
