Prediction: Southampton wins
Both sides are level on 47 points, and victory will boost their playoff hopes. Southampton have a far better home record than QPR’s away form and are unbeaten in their recent home games. Having played in the Premier League last season, Southampton are better equipped to handle pressure and are likely to win at home.
Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Southampton
Southampton have been on a steady run of late and are currently experiencing a seven-game unbeaten run across all competitions, with their last defeat coming to Hull on January 17.
The Saints currently occupy 11th in the Championship, but they are only four points off Wrexham, who are sixth, from their 12 wins, 11 draws and 10 defeats in their 33 league fixtures this campaign. Tonda Eckert’s side will take confidence from their recent record when playing midweek in the league, as they have won six of the eight games they have played this season, with the exceptions being a 3-1 loss at Bristol City and a 0-0 draw with Millwall.
Southampton have won each of their last five league games against QPR since a 2-1 home loss in March 2013 in the Premier League, so fans can take confidence from this record. Meanwhile, this may be a game in which Finn Azaz shines, as against no side has the Ireland international provided more assists in English league football than QPR, assisting in each of his last three appearances against them.

Queens Park Rangers
QPR currently sit 13th in the division, level on points with Southampton (47), after their 33 matches this season but only below them due to their inferior goal difference.
The form of Julien Stephan’s side has been a bit patchy in recent weeks, as they have won two of their last five, losing in two of these fixtures also while drawing with Charlton. QPR have lost their last two away league games against Southampton, last suffering defeat more consecutive visits between 1957 and 1969, when it was across four occasions.
Fans of the London club will take confidence, though, from their midweek form, like those of the hosts. The R’s are unbeaten in their last four midweek away league matches, keeping a clean sheet in each of the last three as they secured one draw, with the rest being victories.
