Fulham vs. QPR – Prediction (Championship – 22.11.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Fulham’s 1-0 win at Birmingham in the last round ensured that the ‘Cottagers’ have now collected 1.75 points per-game on average from their last eight league fixtures (W4, D2, L2). Despite failing to score in three of those matches, the hosts netted 1.50 average goals per game (AGPG), whilst conceding 1.25 AGPG over that period. Serbian striker Aleksandar Mitrović (FUL) has netted 13 goals in his last 11 outings for club and country. Over a third (38.46%) of his goals have arrived during the 15 minutes immediately after half-time. A 60% majority of the occurrences where Fulham have been leading at the break this season have come on home turf. However they haven’t been in the lead once by the 45th minute in their last three league games in succession (D2, L1).

Fulham have scored first in over half (nine) of their 16 league matches this season. QPR’s most common half-time scoreline this campaign has been ‘1-0’ to the opposition. (42.86%). The ‘Rs’ have conceded the opener in 11 of their 16 league matches this campaign.

Ahead of kick-off, only five teams sit below QPR in the Championship’s eight-game form table (W2, D2, L4). The ‘Hoops’ have let in two or more goals in each of their last eight league games, with 50% of their conceded goals during that period arriving in the final third (61st-90th+ minute). Of the nine occasions that QPR’s Nahki Wells (12 goals) has scored this campaign (for club and country), eight have featured him as his side’s first goalscorer. More positively, QPR have scored exactly two goals in each of their last two H2Hs held at Fulham. The previous five meetings here featured over 2.5 goals, though QPR will do well to contribute to any such outcome here, having scored only nine of their 26 total Championship goals on hostile turf.
