Friday, at 19:45, Queens Park Rangers will receive Aston Villa‘s visit in a match for the 15th Championship. The game will take place at London’s Loftus Road stadium.
Villa’s promotional hopes, almost completely scattered.
With a first third of Championship championship qualifying as mediocre, Steve Bruce left the team, with the fans almost blaming the former team technician. In his place, Dean Smith was the main one, who also debuted with a win in the Swansea match (1-0), but in the last round things went back to normal. Leading to break on Norwich’s field, Villa ended up losing by 2-1, sliding to 16th in the Championship. True, the distance to the dam is just three points, the ranking being extremely balanced, but that’s not the main problem. The team still does not make the strike, and the evolutions are undesirable.
In the last ten direct confrontations between the two bands, Aston Villa imposed four times, the QPR in the other two rows, while the other four disputes ended in a tie;
The previous direct duel took place in the return of the last season, when QPR imposed “Villa Park”, score 3-1;
QPR‘s last-ever success in front of Ville dates back to October 2014 from a 2-0;
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a balanced deployment of hostilities. Since none of the two combatants are in a favorable position in the Championship hierarchy, we believe that none of the two bands will risk too much, at least at the start of the match.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1.76
