QPR vs Bournemouth Match Preview

QPR is ranked at 7th place with 35 points and comes after three wins a draw and a loss over the last five matches. They currently sit outside of the playoff promotion zone but they are a couple of games short so in case of a positive result here they could already enter the top-six.

With 33 goals scored so far, they have shown a decent offensive side and in the last five matches, they scored a total of six goals averaging at least a goal per game, while managing to find the back of the net in four encounters. Only in the loss against a direct rival like Stoke they failed to score but it is worth mentioning they missed a penalty there. At home they scored a goal in 10 out of 11 matches played so far.

Dykes 6 goals - 2 assists in listed as doubtful for this game but even if he misses they still have Willock 5 goals - 4 assists and Chair 6 goals - 3 assists who are having a great season.

Bournemouth, on the other hand, is ranked at the second spot with 43 points and comes in a bad run after being winless in the last five matches collecting three draws and two losses. This caused them to lose all the advantage they had with the following teams and another false step here would almost mean dropping out of the top two.

With 37 goals scored so far they have one of the best offensive sides in the league but in the last five matches scored a total of four goals which is less than their usual standards.

Solanke for them has been having an outstanding season with 16 goals - 1 assist followed by Billing 7 goals - 4 assists and both of them are expected to play.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. QPR comes in a better form than their rivals and being at home they will try to make the most out of this. They scored at least once in four of the last five h2h matches against Bournemouth while playing at home. Bournemouth is a team with quality players and their goal is clear once again to reach the Premier League directly avoiding the playoffs. Their rivals failed to keep a clean sheet in three of the last five matches so I fancy them scoring a goal too in this one.
