Sheffield Wednesday
- Sheffield Wednesday have lost all three of their home games, conceding an average of 2.67 goals per game in the Championship this term, which makes the Sheffield Wednesday vs Queens Park Rangers prediction particularly challenging for punters this week.
- Since his appointment in late July, Pedersen has stamped his authority on Wednesday’s game plan and put together a patient, possession-based structure which is shape-first, tactically disciplined and prioritises compactness, vertical progression through the middle third, and patience when it comes to attacking.
Queens Park Rangers
- Queens Park Rangers have won three consecutive games across all competitions, including an impressive 3-1 victory at Wrexham.
- In contrast, Stéphan has overseen a much more expansive and continental brand of football since arriving in June, with a possession-based approach, width, and selective high pressing combining to produce a more exciting brand of soccer and shaping the outlook for the Sheffield Wednesday vs Queens Park Rangers preview.
Key Players
- With the attacking threat of Barry Bannan (2 goals in 6 appearances this Championship season) and the presence of a reliable veteran leader in the center of the park, Wednesday can always hurt teams on the counterattack, which is relevant to this Sheffield Wednesday vs Queens Park Rangers prediction.
- In QPR’s French boss Stéphan, they have a head coach who has impressed many with the quick progress his team have made since his arrival, and in Richard Kone, they have the most in-form player in the Championship.
- Kone has scored three goals in five Championship games, and his pace and skill could be decisive on Saturday.
Betting Insights
- The Draw is a decent price at +240, but Sheffield Wednesday are rightful underdogs, according to the latest Sheffield Wednesday vs Queens Park Rangers betting tips.
- The Both Teams to Score option is a tempting -128 here, and it could be a good price, but the defenses of both of these teams have been too leaky for us to support them with much confidence.
Prediction
QPR have superior form, momentum, and an attacking flair to their game that Wednesday just can’t match at present, so the slight favorites are our pick to edge a close game at Hillsborough, at a very fair +145 .
