Stoke vs QPR: Top Free Betting Tips

Stoke City hosts Queens Park Rangers in the penultimate fixture of the 2022/23 Championship season. Both teams will be looking to climb the table but for differing reasons. Stoke eye a higher midtable position while QPR sits just above the relegation zones and want to avoid the demotion reality.

Match Result Prediction: QPR to Win

It is difficult to choose between Stoke City or QPR in this meeting. Neither side has been reliable in front of the goal and continues to embarrass themselves in their own third. QPR have lost two of their last three duels with Stoke but their most recent triumph over the Potters came at this venue. With the relegation scare to push them forward, we are backing a win for the visiting Hoops.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Fans of both sides will be expecting a cagey affair at the Bet365 Stadium. Both sides need the points and will not be too adventurous in their goal pursuits. The last five H2H duels have also finished with Under 2.5 Goals and given their respective circumstances, we expect a similar outcome to this Round 45 EFL Championship meeting.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to QPR

QPR scored twice against Burnley, only the second time in 17 matches have they done so. However, on both occasions that they managed this feat, they have come out as victors. With Stoke scoring just three goals in their last five outings, we believe 2-0 in favour of the Hoopes will be the final scoreline reading.

Stoke vs QPR: Form, Recent Games, and News

Stoke City Preview

Stoke City is safe from relegation but has not won any of their last five Championship matches. They drew 1-1 in their last game and needed a second-half penalty save to get a share of the spoils. Despite this, their inability to win at home with their last home league triumph coming in March would not sit well with the fanbase. Against QPR they have the opportunity to end this poor run at Bet365 Stadium and should recall their good record against them for extra motivation.

Queens Park Rangers Preview

Heading into the final couple of games of the 2022/23 Championship season, QPR find themselves six points behind Stoke. They must win to stave off relegation as a mathematical reality can see them doing down. Rangers will fancy their chances after triumphing against champions Burnley in their last outing, despite accruing 81% possession and seeing 21 attempts on goal. Moreover, with four points from their last two away games, a win over Stoke can be a reality.
