Blackburn vs QPR: Top Free Betting Tips

Blackburn and QPR will be motivated to do better after their unsuccessful venture in the previous campaign. Here are our predictions for this fixture.

Total Goals – Under 2.5

Blackburn and QPR had similar the same problem in the previous season – their defense. Judging by the pre-season preparation, Queens Park Rangers have not improved a lot defensively and it is normal without any new signings to back up their lines. Blackburn, however, seem improved and we do not expect them to concede a lot of goals at the start of the campaign. The three most recent head-to-head games between them ended with under 1.5 goals.

Match Result – Blackburn

There is a great chance that we might see a draw at the start of the new campaign. These two teams played a couple of games last season and both matches ended in 1:0 for the home team. Judging by Blackburn's performances between seasons, they should be the team in better form and overall, they were the better team last season.

Both Teams To Score – No

In all honesty, the three points could go in either direction here although we expect Blackburn to be the team that controls the ball and the pace in this match. In each case, the three most recent h2h games did not have both teams scoring goals. Blackburn's defense definitely seems improved and they did not concede almost any goals in their 6 friendly games from the pre-season preparation.

Blackburn vs QPR: Form, Recent Games, and News

Blackburn Preview

Blackburn came close to reaching the playoffs in the previous season but a few bad results in a row kept them from this achievement. The team did not achieve much in the transfer market either as they have only two arrivals and both came with free transfers. The team still looked promising between seasons and they will definitely aim for that playoff zone again.

Queens Park Rangers Preview

QPR were slightly more active on the transfer market although all of their arrivals were either free transfers or players on loan. The team needed a serious improvement in defense as they conceded 59 goals in 46 games last season. We are not too sure if there is any improvement at this point because their performances in the friendly games were not impressive at all.
