1st prediction for Queens Park Rangers vs Sunderland – Sunderland to win 27/25
This is a game pitting two teams with very differing fortunes against each other. Queens Park Rangers are struggling in 23rd with only one win to their names, though they have drawn their last two. Despite a strong end to last season, Marti Cifuentes’ team are bang in trouble this year. Sunderland, on the other hand, are in fine form, and are top of the table with a five point cushion on nearest challenger Burnley. They are unbeaten in their last five and boast incredible attacking talent, which makes them strong favourites for victory here.
2nd prediction for Queens Park Rangers vs Sunderland – both teams to score 89/100
While Sunderland are the highest scorers in the league, they are less capable at the back and have looked vulnerable at times. They have conceded the most out of the top five, including three against QPR’s rival strugglers Plymouth Argyle, though their front line has meant this hasn’t caused issues. As for QPR, they look even more vulnerable defensively and have only kept one clean sheet all season. With both sides’ relative defensive frailties and Sunderland’s attacking power, it’s likely both sides will hit the net in this game.
3rd prediction for Queens Park Rangers vs Sunderland – over 3.5 goals in the game 283/100
As previously mentioned, this game has the potential to feature plenty of goals. Sunderland have a whopping 23 league goals already and could hit this bet themselves, such is their quality in the final third. Though they sold Jack Clarke, his successor Romaine Mundle has been one of the league’s standout players along with other young talent. QPR have strong attackers in Zan Celar and Ilias Chair, so they won’t be pushovers despite their struggles and will still hold a threat.

Full preview of the game: last results and head to head
This is a clash of two teams with very differing situations, with Sunderland strong favourites. They’ve won all but three league games this season, while QPR have won just once. QPR are 23rd with Sunderland top, and a win for Sunderland could see them eight points clear while QPR could slip to the foot of the table. Conversely, the hosts could leave the relegation zone if they win and results elsewhere go their way. Sunderland come into this game over a month unbeaten, while QPR haven’t won since August.
In this fixture’s past, Sunderland have the upper hand. The Black Cats are unbeaten in the last three, with two victories. Overall, in 33 meetings of the two sides, Sunderland have won 14, with QPR claiming just nine victories, alongside ten draws.
