QPR vs. Preston: Key Match Statistics

QPR will host Preston in west London this Saturday. Both teams are aiming to extend their unbeaten streak to seven matches. Preston, known as The Lilywhites, currently sit a point and two positions above QPR, who are in 18th place. Despite this, the two clubs share the same number of wins, goals scored, and goals conceded, having both moved clear of the relegation zone. Last season, QPR secured victories in both of their league encounters against Preston North End, keeping clean sheets in both matches. They are now seeking to achieve three consecutive wins against Preston for the first time. Conversely, Preston North End has a strong record in their recent away league fixtures against QPR, having won five of their last eight (with three losses), and scoring two or more goals in six of those games. QPR has maintained an unbeaten run over their last six league matches, recording three wins and three draws. Notably, they have achieved four clean sheets in their most recent five games, a figure equal to the total number of clean sheets they managed in their preceding 22 league fixtures combined. In contrast, Preston has secured only one victory in their last 11 league games (eight draws, two losses). However, this single win occurred in their most recent away fixture, a 2-0 triumph against Cardiff City. This season, QPR’s Jimmy Dunne leads the Championship in duels won, with a total of 170. The defender also holds the third position across the league for clearances made, with 116. Sandi Toksvig will be accompanied by Gyles Brandreth, Lulu, Emmanuel Sonubi, and Alan Davies.
