QPR have a record of one win, seven draws, and five defeats in the 13 Championship matches they have played this season so far and this sums up to 10 points, and this keeps them at 23rd place, with only one point above the bottom-placed Portsmouth. The Marti Cifuentes side, recently went goalless draw with Sunderland and drew three matches on the trot from back-to-back matches against Coventry City and Burnley, following their 2-1 loss at Portsmouth. It was while drawing Burnley and Sunderland that QPR found its morale booster, but won no match in the Championship since it had overthrown Luton Town last 29th August. QPR ended last season in the 18th position of the Championship while having been out of the Premier League since the 2014-15 season where they spent the last nine years in the English football second-tier.
Queens Park Rangers Predicted Starting Lineup
Nardi; Dunne, Cook, Field; Smyth, Varane, Morgan, Santos; Madsen, Celar, Chair
Middlesbrough recent Form
Middlesbrough have won two of their last three Championship matches against QPR and thrashed QPR 2-0 in their last match of the season. Michael Carrick's team came in eighth in the Championship last season, four points from playoff spots. They are therefore one of the favorites for promotion to the Premier League in the 2025-26 season.
Middlesbrough have garnered 18 points from the first 13 matches of the season and are now sitting at 10th position on the table, three points behind West Bromwich Albion in sixth position. Middlesbrough have recently endured their third defeat in five league matches after winning only one in that sequence at home to Sheffield United. They lost 3-0 to Coventry at home recently.
Middlesbrough must keep up their form over the next few months if they are to make it into the playoffs. They will be hoping to take all three points from both QPR and Luton in their last two games before the November international break.
Middlesbrough Starting XI
Dieng; Ayling, Edmundson, Clarke, Borges; Morris, Howson; Jones, Azaz, McGree; Conway
Queens Park Rangers vs Middlesbrough Expert Tips
QPR is the team with the worst record at home in Championship this season, with no win out of seven home games on the bounce. We think Middlesbrough have enough experience to come out of that situation and grab the game on Tuesday night.
