On September 20, QPR will play against Stoke City in the sixth round of the Championship. Here’s a look at the best bets for this match.

QPR

QPR started their season slowly, managing only one point from their first three games. However, they bounced back with two wins and now sit in the middle of the table, just two points behind the top six.

In their last match, QPR won 3-1 away against a newly promoted team, taking advantage of their opponent’s missed chances. While they struggle with consistency, their games tend to produce many goals.

Stoke City

Stoke began the season strongly, achieving four wins from five matches and currently placed second in the league. In their latest game, Stoke earned a tough 1-0 victory at home against Birmingham, with the winning goal scored in the first half.

This strong start is promising, but there’s still a long way to go in the season. Stoke’s defense has been impressive, conceding only three goals in five games.
