Queens Park Rangers vs Hull City Prediction: Hull looking to solidify place in top six

Queens Park Rangers will welcome Hull City at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium in Game Week 20 of the English Championship. Hull will be looking to solidify the playoff spot in the table. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

When the relatively unknown Marti Cifuentes was selected as Gareth Ainsworth's replacement, some QPR supporters may have had difficulty accepting this unexpected appointment. However, their doubts have been quickly erased by consecutive victories against Stoke City and Preston North End. It has been since April that the team has achieved such a winning streak, and their six goals scored during this period have significantly lifted the spirits at Loftus Road. Additionally, four of these goals were scored in the 79th minute or later, which further indicates that the team is moving in the right direction. However, QPR cannot afford to falter at this stage, as they are still four points away from 21st-placed Huddersfield Town and must involve multiple teams in the relegation battle. After providing assists for all of QPR's goals in the game against Preston, Ilias Chair is expected to be included in the starting lineup. Andre Dozzell's position in the team may be more uncertain than Jack Colback's, as Dozzell replaced Colback at half time in the previous match. 

Begovic; Cannon, Dunne, Clarke-Salter, Paal; Colback, Field, Willock; Dozzell, Dykes, Smyth. 

The Tigers have not been performing at their best in recent weeks. With just seven points from five matches and needing last-minute goals to secure wins and draws, they are not in peak condition. Furthermore, in their previous match, they suffered a 2-1 defeat against a resurgent Watford side, marking only their second loss in ten home games. While Hull has accumulated 14 points in their away matches, their only victory in the last five encounters was against a Birmingham City team that had recently undergone managerial changes.

There is a possibility that Rosenior may make changes to the attacking options, with Ozan Tufan and Adama Traore being contenders for creative roles in the Hull team. It is likely that Jason Lokilo will be taken out of the starting lineup, while the remaining players in the Hull City XI may remain the same. 

Allsop; Christie, Jones, Greaves, Coyle; Seri, Morton; Twine, Tufan, Philogene; Delap. 

Although QPR has gained momentum lately, this match is no longer expected to be one-sided as previously thought. Despite their recent decline in performance, we predict a draw for Hull City from this fixture, which can still be seen as a positive outcome for them. Take a double chance on the home side with momentum at their side.
