Cardiff City, Recent FormCardiff City were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 2-2 draw against Leeds United. During that encounter they had 28% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 25 shots on goal.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 9 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games.
With 3 defeats and just 1 win from their last 6 home league games at Cardiff City Stadium, it's clear they are not having a good run of home form at the moment.
Queens Park Rangers, Recent FormQueens Park Rangers will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Watford in which they suffered a 4-0 away defeat. Their share of possession in that meeting was 29%, while racking up 4 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target. Watford had 23 shots on goal with 12 on target.
Manager Gareth Ainsworth will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 11 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have been enduring a less than rewarding period of form away from home at the moment, during which they have lost 3 and only picked up 2 wins from their last 6 matches.
It was a 0-0 draw last time these two met, so not one to look back on fondly, with both sides taking away just a single point for their troubles.
It's been a long time since Cardiff at home has managed to find the back of The R's net, having failed to score against them in their last 3 encounters at Cardiff City Stadium. Playing away from home, QPR have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Cardiff. The Bluebirds have struggled to break down the QPR defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the league, Cardiff has not won any of the last 3 times they have welcomed QPR to Cardiff City Stadium.
There is only really one injury concern for the Cardiff manager Erol Bulut ahead of this clash, with Ryan Allsop (Knock) missing out, which gives Bulut a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the QPR manager Gareth Ainsworth ahead of this clash, with Jimmy Dunne (Shoulder) missing out, which gives Ainsworth a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
