Wigan vs QPR Match Preview

Wigan is ranked at the 16th place with 50 points and comes after a decent run of three wins a draw and a loss over the last five matches. This has helped them to remain six points above the relegation zone, but with five rounds remaining nothing is sure yet. Tonight, at their home, they will try to bounce back from that 3-0 defeat against Brentford, considering the fact that they are unbeaten in the last five games at home ground.

In fact, they lost just twice in the last ten games and managed to find the back of the net in eight out of ten occasions. As they will need some point more, I expect Wigan to be fully motivated and to play an offensive game creating plenty of scoring chances.

QPR, on the other side, is ranked at the 14th place with 53 points and sits in a slightly more comfortable position. They come after two wins and three losses over the last five matches and this results being are nine points above the relegation zone, with just 15 points left to be played.

They were coming from three losses in a row before winning over Middlesbrough in their last game when no one expected them to get back to winning ways. With 60 goals scored in total QPR has one of the best offensive sides in the league and despite being on the road here, I fancy them to continue their form. The previous h2h game this season ended in a 3-1 win for QPR.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. Wigan plays at home a match which if they win they could be safe from relegation and the would play without pressure in the remaining matches, so they will try to not let this slip. QPR has the history on their side as they won four of the last five h2h duels between them, but here they lack motivation for a win, and despite how this game ends, I fancy them to score a goal.
