Match Facts
QPR have only lost three of their last 27 home league games against Watford – in two of those seasons, the Hornets won promotion (1998-99 and 2005-06).
Watford are looking for their first league double over QPR since the 2005-06 campaign under Aidy Boothroyd.
Since the last date Queens Park Rangers were top of the Championship table (October 24th, 2022), the Hoops have lost the most games in the division (33) and only Rotherham United (93) have shipped more goals than they have (91). In those 56 games since then, the Hoops have a win percentage of 16% (9 wins) and have picked up a mere 0.73 points per game (41 in 56 games).
Watford’s last four away league games have seen 18 goals scored, with both sides finding the net in each game. Indeed, since the start of December, the Hornets have scored four more away goals than any other Championship side (12).
Among players to play 500 minutes in the Championship this season, Watford’s Giorgi Chakvetadze has created the most chances per 90 minutes (3.6), creating four and registering an assist in their 3-3 draw with Plymouth on New Year’s Day.
