Fulham v QPR Betting Preview – Championship 17th March 12.30pm
Fulham are looking simply brilliant at the moment and they carrying good momentum into this one plus they got a midweek rest. The Cottagers look solid for a play off spot at least this season and will be expected to collect another three points. However, QPR surprised many punters on Tuesday night as they managed to take down third-placed Aston Villa which helped Fulham out as it leaves the Cottagers just one point behind third third-placed Villains now heading into the weekend.
Fulham News and Form
Fulham form has been nothing short of brilliant for a while now. They have won fifteen of their last twenty league games (D3 L2) which is such a strong output for them which puts them in promotion contention. They have won their last four league games and they have remained unbeaten in the Championship since mid-December. At Craven Cottage they have been a real powerhouse this season and they are riding a nine-match winning streak on home soil in the second tier at the moment, having come through stiffer challenges against the likes of Wolves and Sheffield United recently. Each of Fulham’s last five home wins have been with a clean sheet so a Fulham to win to nil wager at Coral will have some appeal in this one at 21/10 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 6:05 p.m. on March 14th, 2018). Fulham are W10 D6 L2 in the league this season on home soil overall and three of their last four results at home have been 2-0 wins. A Fulham 2-0 correct score at Coral returns odds of 8/1* (Betting Odds taken at 02:08 a.m. on March 14th, 2018).
QPR News and Form
QPR have managed to win back to back games for themselves, their midweek win at Aston Villa probably coming as a bit of a shock to even them. They are unbeaten in three league games now (W2 D1) so there have been positives for them recently. The win at Villa Park was just their third away success of the entire season though (D5 L10) and it also snapped a three-match losing away streak that the R’s were on. That’s why the win for them was such a surprise. QPR have not taken a clean sheet in any of their last away games now and they have averaged under a goal per game themselves on their travels. As they are facing a really good Fulham defence under 2.5 goals at Coral is at 7/5 odds* (Betting Odds taken at 02:08 a.m. on March 14th, 2018) looks a decent option. The R’s have conceded an average of 1.5 per away game and they have conceded at least one goal in 94% of their away matches.
Fulham v QPR Head to Head
Fulham are W3 D1 L1 from their five previous Championship contest against QPR so have a bit of a lead there. The one loss they suffered was actually at Craven Cottage last season. Before that though the cottagers were six unbeaten and were on a five-match winning streak at home against QPR. Both teams have scored in six of the last seven meetings.
