Head-to-head statistics Southampton - QPR
Southampton: excellent home form
Southampton's most recent Championship match saw them beat West Ham away from home 3-2, despite being outshot 15-28 and 7-10 on shots on target. The away side's goalkeeper made ten saves.
Southampton are enjoying a strong run at home - they have won six of their last seven Championship matches at St Mary's, and the trend looks consistent. Over their last ten matches, they have lost just once, winning six, with an average of 2 goals scored and 0.9 conceded per game. That difference points to a reliable defence and enough attacking output to deal with opponents at a similar level in the table. Their form over the last five matches also holds up well: three wins and a draw leave Southampton in a confident position at home, even against sides competing alongside them in the promotion race.
Match Results: Southampton
Queens Park Rangers: good team form
Queens Park Rangers thrashed Swansea 5-0 at home in their last Championship match. The score was already 4-0 by half-time; QPR had just 41% possession but outperformed their opponents in expected goals - 2.68 to 0.29.
Queens Park Rangers are gradually finding form, having lost just twice in their last ten matches, with four wins and four draws and an average of 1.7 goals scored per game. Away from home, they tend to play pragmatically: total goals stayed under 3.5 in eight of their last nine away Championship matches, suggesting their games on the road are relatively low-scoring. Over their last five matches, the team have taken two consecutive wins following a run of draws and a defeat, maintaining a balance between attack and defence ahead of a trip to one of their promotion rivals.
Match Results: Queens Park Rangers
Match Result Prediction
Southampton have won 6 of their last 7 home matches. This season they have five wins and no defeats in six home games. Queens Park Rangers, however, have lost just one of their six away matches this season, so resistance from the visitors cannot be ruled out. We're backing a Southampton win at 1.78*.
Goals Prediction / Total
Total Goals - Under 3.5 has landed in 8 of Queens Park Rangers' last 9 away matches. In their last 10 away games, QPR have averaged 0.8 goals scored, while Southampton have conceded an average of 0.6 per game in their last 10 home matches. The case against the bet is Southampton's home scoring rate - an average of 2.6 goals in their last 10 home matches. Nevertheless, we're going with Total Goals - Under 3.5 at odds of 1.56*.
Corners Prediction
Southampton's last five matches have featured fewer than 10.5 corners. In 6 of Queens Park Rangers' last 7 away matches there have been fewer than 9.5 corners - a tighter line. On top of that, Southampton have had fewer than 6.5 corners in six consecutive matches. We're going with Total Corners - Under 10.5 at odds of 1.77*.
Reliable Bet
Southampton have gone unbeaten at home in 19 of their last 20 matches. This season they have also yet to lose in any of their 6 home fixtures, with 5 wins and a draw. This option allows for a draw and is consistent with Southampton's home record advantage. Our pick is Southampton Not to Lose at 1.21*.
Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the top three scorelines are 1-1 (11.09%), 1-0 (10.21%) and 2-0 (9.05%). The 1-1 draw has the highest probability among these options, followed by two Southampton wins with margins of one and two goals.
*Odds are approximate and may vary across different bookmakers.*
⭐ Editor's Prediction
Both sides are motivated to push up the table, but Southampton have a clear advantage at home, backed by a run of strong performances on their own ground and consistent form in both attack and defence. That home trend is reflected in the hosts' high scoring rate alongside a relatively low number of goals conceded, which gives grounds to back them here - particularly against a side with similar ambitions but a less convincing away record, without any notable runs of results in either direction. The editor's main prediction is a Southampton win. Predicted score: 2-1.
