Queens Park Rangers vs Middlesbrough: prediction for the EFL Championship Week 37

An important clash for the bottom half of the league standings.

A slumping Middlesbrough will come to the Loftus Road in an attempt to halt the Queens Park Rangers’ winning streak. The game will begin on Saturday, March 9, at 4pm CET.

Queens Park Rangers

Despite spending multiple seasons in the Premier League, Queens Park Rangers have not been to the top flight since 2015. This season, however, it is all about keeping their spot in the EFL Championship, before trying to get to the EPL in 2025.

While sitting at 38 points, QPR won three games in a row, including a road victory at Leicester City. As the Rangers are at home for both Weeks 36 and 37, it is a good opportunity to build on those successful results.

Middlesbrough

As Middlesbrough got sent down to the Championship in 2017, the Smoggies made few attempts at coming back up, but this season is not looking as the one to remember.

Stuck at 44 points, Boro is six points clear of the relegation zone, but with four losses in their last five games, there is no time to rest on the laurels. If teams at the bottom keep piling up wins as is the case with the likes of QPR, Sheffield Wednesday and Millwall, things can get dicey really quick.

Prediction ⚽️

Especially considering the fact that the Queens Park Rangers’ visit to the Riverside Stadium in September ended up with the road team winning “2-0”.

Now with Boro coming to the Loftus Road, it might make sense to ride the hot hand and bet on Queens Park Rangers to sweep the season series with the hefty 2.76 odds 🔥.
