Stoke City vs Queens Park Rangers: Championship Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups
In a crucial match at the lower end of the standings in the Championship, Stoke City is set to host Queens Park Rangers at the bet365 Stadium. Stoke City’s poor streak continued at Blackburn Rovers , resulting in their fourth consecutive Championship defeat since a narrow victory over relegation-threatened Rotherham United. Despite the recruitment of Steven Schumacher from Plymouth Argyle to move Stoke into the top-six conversation, a string of poor results has left them in 20th place, just three points ahead of 22nd-placed QPR with 15 games left in the campaign.
Winger Andre Vidigal, signed from Maritimo in the summer, has been a bright spot for Stoke, having scored five Championship goals in 23 appearances. However, Stoke’s struggles highlight the need for defensive attention. Queens Park Rangers, after a seven-game winless streak in the Championship, have revived their survival hopes with eight points from their last four league matches, including a draw against Norwich City. Despite falling behind against Norwich, QPR fought back with goals from January arrivals Lucas Andersen and Michael Frey.
With other bottom-tier teams facing defeats over the weekend, Marti Cifuentes’s side is close to escaping the bottom three, trailing the 21st-placed Huddersfield Town by just two points ahead of their visit to the bet365 Stadium. QPR’s strategic signings, have strengthened their position in the race for second-tier safety, with Kenneth Paal emerging as their leading scorer in the Championship this season with four goals in 31 games.
