QPR look to ensure survival while Leeds chasing top two finish
Leeds United travel to London looking to go four points clear in second place as they bid to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking. Their hosts, Queens Park Rangers, can guarantee Championship football next season with a win.
Queens Park Rangers
QPR ended their three-match winless streak with a crucial 1-0 victory over Preston North End at home. The lone goal, scored by Lyndon Dykes in the first half, proved decisive. This win widened their margin above the relegation zone to four points. With Huddersfield Town facing Birmingham City, QPR may only need one more point to secure their place in the Championship for another season.
Under Marti Cifuentes’ leadership, QPR have been in impressive form, winning eight out of their last 17 Championship fixtures. This streak ranks them sixth in the division in terms of performance during that span. Cifuentes will likely aim to finish the season strongly, building on this positive momentum. His side will be motivated to prove that they can compete with the top sides in the division against Leeds.
QPR are likely to field an unchanged line-up Taylor Richards and Michael Frey are still unavailable.
Leeds United
Leeds faced significant pressure heading into their clash with Middlesbrough, having faltered in their previous three matches. However, they swiftly shifted the narrative with a commanding offensive performance, finding the net four times in just over an hour. Despite Middlesbrough’s spirited comeback with three goals of their own, Leeds emerged triumphant, securing the vital three points they desperately needed. This victory sees them leapfrogging Ipswich Town in the standings, albeit with an additional game under their belt.
At Loftus Road, Leeds aim to extend their impressive away form by clinching their 12th victory on the road this season.
Daniel Farke is expected to name an unchanged side in the Capital. Daniel James and
Pascal Struijk are both ruled out. With the exception of those two, Leeds have a full squad available.
