"Starting with the hosts, putting in what was a downbeat display away at automatic promotion contenders Middlesbrough last weekend as they eventually fell to a 3-1 loss on Tyneside, QPR will be seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, although the Hoops might have spent the majority of last season looking over their shoulder at a looming relegation scrap, Julien Stephan's side have come roaring back in an eye-catching fashion this time around."
"Getting Saturday's return to west London underway this weekend sat within touching distance of finding a shock routine into the play-off places, the former Rennes boss has seen his squad gain a recent reputation for their success on home soil. Last seen at Loftus Road securing a last-gasp 2-1 win against Birmingham, QPR have won all of their previous three consecutive Championship showdowns in west London by an aggregate score of 8-4."
QPR aim to respond after a 3-1 defeat at Middlesbrough, with Julien Stephan's side having rebounded strongly this season and built notable home form. QPR have won three consecutive Championship home matches by an aggregate 8-4 and have seen their last six matches at Loftus Road finish with both teams scoring. Leicester suffered defeats to Southampton and Sheffield United and sit outside the play-off places, with Marti Cifuentes seeking stability in 2026. Leicester produced a season-best 3-1 win over Ipswich and followed with a 3-1 victory at Derby, and now aim for back-to-back Championship wins for the first time since August.
