QPR will be looking to extend their winning streak

QPR host Coventry City at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium in the EFL Championship on Saturday.

Both teams have had solid starts to their seasons and have a chance of ending the weekend at the top of the table.

QPR are currently fifth in the league, two points off Fulham at the top of the table. Mark Warburton's side are unbeaten across all competitions this season. The Hoops will hope to continue their unbeaten streak with a win against a high-flying Coventry City side on Saturday.

Coventry City are fourth in the league, one point ahead of their opponents on Saturday. Mark Robins' side have steadied the ship after a tough start to their campaign.

The Sky Blues have been playing better than what many thought they would this season and they will hope to continue the trend with a win against QPR.

Both sides have been in good form of late, and that should make for a well-contested matchup.


QPR vs Coventry City Head-to-Head

QPR demolished Coventry City 3-0 the last time the two sides met back in April. Goals from Chris Willock and Ilias Chair, along with an own goal from Michael Rose, were enough to secure all three points for the Hoops.
