Prediction

  • QPR claimed a critical point against a free-falling Sunderland last weekend as they moved one point clear of the relegation zone.
  • The London club are now winless in their last three league games but with the pack at the bottom so closely packed, every point will matter over the coming eight matches.
  • Following a disappointing home defeat against Watford, Birmingham have opted to bring former boss Gary Rowett back to the club as a caretaker manager for the remaining eight games of the season.
  • The Blues have picked up just one point from the last 18 available and are only clear of the relegation zone on goal difference.
