Queens Park Rangers v West Bromwich Albion Betting Tips – EFL Championship, 28th September 12.30pm

Two in-form sides meet at Loftus Road in Saturday’s early kick off in the EFL Championship, as Mark Warburton’s Queens Park Rangers host Slaven Bilic’s West Bromwich Albion. The pair have been evenly matched at the start of this season, with both teams taking 16 points from eight games. Meanwhile, West Brom remain the only side yet to lose a Championship fixture so far. Can QPR change that this Saturday, or will Albion extend their unbeaten run to nine league games?

Queens Park Rangers News and Form – Hoops to claim a fifth consecutive league win?

Queens Park Rangers have shocked a few so far by taking 16 points from their opening eight games. New boss Mark Warburton has settled into life at Loftus Road with aplomb, guiding the London club to five wins and a draw so far. No side in the Championship have won more games than Hoops.

QPR are the form team in the second tier, winning four on the spin since falling to back-to-back defeats to Bristol City and Swansea City. Over the past month, the London outfit have beaten Wigan Athletic, Sheffield Wednesday, Luton Town and Millwall, scoring ten times in the process.

Last Saturday, Nahki Wells scored a brace to give Rangers a precious three points against London rivals Millwall at The Den. That was QPR’s third away league win of the season, with all three victories ending in a 2-1 scoreline.

Queens Park Rangers have made a stunning start, and victory over West Brom on Saturday will send out a real signal of intent to their Championship rivals.

West Bromwich Albion News and Form – Can the Baggies maintain their undefeated record?

West Bromwich Albion are the only team left in the Championship this season with an unbeaten record. Slaven Bilic has made a strong start to his career in the Baggies dugout, as Albion have won four and drawn four of eight in the league.

After drawing three and winning one of four, West Brom came from behind to pick up a handy home win over struggling Huddersfield Town at The Hawthorns last Sunday. The Baggies found themselves behind twice, but two goals in the last 15 minutes won the points for West Brom. Matt Phillips was the hero, netting twice in the victory.

Bilic’s boys have been strong on their travels this season, winning two and drawing two of their opening four on the road. West Brom have sealed wins at Nottingham Forest and Luton Town and have drawn with Derby County and Fulham.

This is a big game for both sides, and West Brom would love to extend their unbeaten run to nine Championship games on Saturday. The Baggies are available at the tempting odds of 17/10, while the draw is priced at 12/5. Can the Midlands side leave Loftus Road with a positive result at the weekend?

Queens Park Rangers v West Bromwich Albion Predictions

Draw: Both teams have made an excellent start to their respective seasons. West Brom have been tipped to do well, but not many people would have had QPR down as promotion candidates. However, Warburton has done a marvellous job so far, with Rangers winning five of their opening eight.

There’s nothing to split these two in the table, as both have accumulated 16 points from a possible 24. I can see the pair being evenly matched on Saturday, too, so have a punt on the draw at 12/5.

Between them, QPR and West Brom have scored 29 Championship goals, with the Baggies netting one more than Rangers. I fancy both teams to score in an entertaining stalemate at Loftus Road, which is available at 3/1.
