Recent respective form guides

Queens Park Rangers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Rangers have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Wigan Athletic's away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Latics have hit 8 goals, 14 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Queens Park Rangers are stuck down in the relegation zone of Barclays Premier League with a return of just 17 points from their 21 games thus far.
