Over that same period, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 8. That kind of pattern might not follow through into this next game, of course.

🗞️ Team News: Preston North End
Looking at personnel, there is just the lone fitness concern for the Preston North End manager Alex Neil to be concerned with from a near full-strength group of players. Patrick Bauer (Achilles tendon rupture) is sidelined.
🗞️ Team News: QPR
Thanks to a largely full-strength group, there’s only a single fitness issue for the QPR gaffer Mark Warburton to be concerned with. Luke Amos (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be in action.
💡 Prediction
Our assessment is that QPR and Preston North End should both get enough opportunities to score, although it’s hard to separate the two.
A draw is a real possibility, as we are expecting there to be little between them. We therefore see a close game with a 1-1 draw at the end of this game.
