Rotherham United have the best chance at survival among the teams in that battle in the Championship, with three matches in hand and even four on some of the teams. The first of the matches in hand will be against QPR at home on Tuesday. Rotherham go to this game placed 22nd with 36 points while QPR have 56 points, in 11th place. The hosts dropped two more points on Saturday in a 0-0 draw with Huddersfield and as a result, stay six points below the safety line. A run of seven losses in the last 10 matches and having bagged just seven points from a possible 33 in the last 11 matches casts a major doubt on their survival credentials. They’ve also failed to score in seven of the last 10 matches, and kept only two clean sheets, while winning two of the last 11 league matches. At home, they’ve posted poor results and head here with five straight losses and just four wins in 15. They’ve conceded two or more goals in three of their last five Championship matches, in total 11 goals in the five matches, while scoring just two. In the November meeting between the two sides, Rotherham lost 3-2.

QPR have picked up well lately, and with consistency, if the teams above them falter, they could yet qualify for the promotion play-offs, being 12 points below sixth. They are coming from a 4-1 win over another relegation threatened side, Sheffield Wednesday – their fifth win in eight matches. It was also the third time in five matches that they’ve scored three or more goals in the Championship. QPR have actually scored in each of the last five matches but kept only one clean sheet in the process. Lyndon Dykes has emerged as a key man for the side and as long as he remains fit, he will be a threat in this game and can push QPR’s ambitions forward in the remaining matches. He has nine goals so far in the Championship and four of them have come in the last four matches. Chris Willock has also picked up well with two goals in the last three matches. They however have an unstable away run in the Championship, winning just once in the last five but they’ve scored in each of the last four.
