Just two spots separate the two teams in the current Championship table, and both have amassed 47 points from 33 games. Southampton lie eleventh buy virtue of a better goal difference than their opponents (+4 compared to -1). QPR occupy 13th spot in the table with Bristol Citty sandwiched between the two.

Our Southampton vs QPR Prediction
Our prediction for the Southampton vs. Queens Park Rangers Championship match is: Southampton wins.
There has been a huge improvement in form for Southampton over the last month or so and that has been the impetus for their climb up the table. QPR have been consistently inconsistent all season long, capable of great wins one week, then poor losses the next. This will be close based on their records, but with recent form on their side, it makes sense to back Southampton to land the victory here.
