QPR - Watford: forecast for the Championship match
QPR will host Watford on January 1 in the 25th round of the Championship. Will the Hoops be able to play another strong match and secure their fourth home win in a row, or will the Hornets break this streak and take all three points for themselves? In the forecast, we assessed the prospects of each team in the upcoming match and selected the most reliable bets. Which choice will be successful?
Command Analysis
Queens Park Rangers
EnglandCurrent form
Before the start of the season, QPR could hardly expect anything more than to remain in the Championship – the selection of players did not allow them to set more ambitious goals. At the moment, Marti Cifuentes' team occupies 17th place in the table with 26 points and is five points away from the relegation zone – such a handicap allows them to look to the future with optimism. Having drawn 1:1 with Norwich in the last round, QPR failed to win in the second match in a row.
Disqualifications and injuries
Colback and Dembele are injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- QPR have won their last three matches
- QPR have scored in their last five home games
Probable lineup: Nardi-Ashby, Dunn, Fox, Pal-Andersen, Smith, Morgan, Field, Chair-Colley.
Watford
EnglandCurrent form
Watford clearly expected to fight for a playoff spot this season and generally performed quite well in the first round. Tom Cleverley team is currently seventh in the table with 37 points and is only behind sixth-placed Middlesbrough, who have played one match more, due to additional indicators. In the last round, Watford unexpectedly lost 1:2 at home to Cardiff, suffering their second defeat in the last three rounds of the championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
The visitors have no problems with their lineup.
Interesting trends for betting
- Watford have lost two of their last three matches
- Watford have scored in their last five matches
Probable line-up: Bachmann - Laroussi, Porteous, Pollock, Andrews - Luza, Chakvetadze, Kayembe, Sissoko, Vata - Bayo.

1.81Tip and bets
"Wafford" has fallen out of the playoff zone after several failures and will certainly be determined to return there today - the visitors will probably be as aggressive in attack as possible. It is unlikely that QPR has a real chance to avoid problems in defense, the "Hornets" have high-level players up front, but the "Hoops" have been scoring a lot and regularly at home lately, an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Forecast - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75
Bet on the outcome
QPR have played their last home games at a very high level, winning three in a row, but it will not be easy to build on their success. Watford will clearly be motivated and charged to return to the playoff zone - the Hornets have a serious advantage in terms of player selection, having won seven points in their last three matches against the Hoops, it makes sense to give preference to the visitors.
Bet - Asian handicap (0) on Watford. This bet is offered with odds of 1.89
Bet on corners
Watford are favourites and will probably spend a lot of time attacking, but QPR are quite capable of responding at home and there should be plenty of corners.
Bet - total over 10.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.91
