Recent respective form guides

Queens Park Rangers are not in the best of form at home, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats in their last six. The goals for column just outweighs the goals against over this period, 10 to 9.

The away form of Ipswich Town is pretty dire, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While the Tractor Boys have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Q.P.R. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola Championship, showing a record of 5 points from their 4 games played so far, Ipswich Town are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola Championship with a return of just 1 points from their 4 games thus far.

The current home form displayed by Q.P.R. is obviously none too clever, but, with the current standing of Ipswich Town, I firmly believe this match can only produce a victory for the Rangers. Home Win

Q.P.R. Unbeaten in the last 3 home games.
Unbeaten run of 4 matches.
