Match preview

Bournemouth's promotion push has hit the buffers following a six-match winless run but the Cherries still occupy second place in the Championship standings and can bounce back at QPR.

Scott Parker's men are struggling to find top form but their poor results have coincided with a tough run of fixtures which included meetings with Coventry, Fulham, Blackburn and Middlesbrough - all teams who harbour promotion aspirations of their own.

QPR also fall into that category and have been generally solid at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium this season, where they have claimed 21 of their 35 points.

However, the Hoops have not played since a 2-0 home defeat against Stoke on December 5 due to a Covid outbreak and the core of Mark Warburton's squad only returned to training on Wednesday so they could be undercooked for this fixture.

Parker, on the other hand, has a near-fully-fit squad to choose from and his Bournemouth side, who boast the best away record in the Championship, look decent value in the draw no bet market.
