QPR will welcome Huddersfield Town to Loftus Road for a matchday nine fixture in the EFL Championship on Saturday.
The hosts are coming off a 1-0 defeat away to Swansea City last weekend. Joel Piroe had an eventful first half - missing a penalty and scoring the winner in the space of five minutes.
Huddersfield, meanwhile, fell to a defeat against Blackpool by the same scoreline at home. Theodor Corbeanu's 38th-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two teams.
The defeat left the Terriers in the relegation zone. They currently sit second from bottom, four points away from safety, while QPR are ninth with 11 points.
QPR vs Huddersfield Town Head-to-Head
This will be the 40th meeting between the two teams. Huddersfield have a slightly better record with 15 wins to QPR's 14, while ten games have ended in a share of the spoils.
Their most recent meeting came in April 2022. Luke Amos and Ilias Chair found the back of the net to twice help QPR come from behind to claim a point in a 2-2 draw away from home.

QPR vs Huddersfield Town Prediction
Huddersfield have fallen from the heights of last season that saw them narrowly miss out on promotion, as they are already in an early relegation battle.
QPR, meanwhile, have struggled in recent weeks and are on a three-game winless run but are still favourites in the game. Despite their porous defence, the Hoops should do enough to shut out their visitors for a comfortable win.
Prediction: QPR 2-1 Huddersfield Town
