Derby vs QPR Prediction & Betting tips
Derby County was in the top six for a long time, but in the last two months it has been more difficult with manager Frank Lampard’s club and currently it is eighth. Opponent Queens Park Rangers needs another point to be permanently safe. Which team is the favorite for the win?
Derby County:
Derby County will have to win the remaining four games to get the last ticket for the playoffs. In this context, it lost two points on Good Friday visiting Birmingham City. In the second city of England it became 2-2. Within a hundred seconds it was already behind by a goal from Lucas Jutkiewicz. Even before half-time the 2-2 final score was achieved by goals from Martyn Waghorn and Richard Keogh. In the meantime, Michael Morrison gave the home team a renewed lead.
Manager Frank Lampard left Saint Andrew’s with a satisfied feeling: ‘A tie reflects the proportions. If you come back twice from a backlog then you can speak of a point won. This was a difficult game for us. Many teams have played a draw or even lost. I am also satisfied with the performance of Martyn Waghorn. I would like to see him play as a striker. He was a goalscorer and always playable as a striker. ”
Queens Park Rangers:
For Queens Park Rangers, the 2018/2019 season has become one with many faces. The start of the season was dramatic when it only took one point from the first five games. After this, with the help of a few hired players such as Tomer Hemed and Nakhi Wells, it was able to rise a number of places on the rankings and even scuffed the subtop for some time. Logically, this good series could not sustain this player material. As soon as things got worse, manager Steve McClaren was dismissed.
His temporary successor John Eustace is no better than McClaren. He only took four points from four games. Points that McClaren in all likelihood would have grabbed. The most important service that Eustace did for his club was the 4-0 win at Swansea City, making Queens Park Rangers practically safe. In theory it needs another point, but the forty-eight points so far are sufficient for another year of Championship. Queens Park Rangers can play freely during the last three games.
