Must read

The Championship’s lowest scorers – QPR, with 15 goals from 18 matches – take on the highest in the shape of Norwich City, who have found the net almost twice per game on average so far.

Rangers are yet to win at home this season, but could climb out of the bottom three if they end that sequence.

They go into the game unbeaten in three matches after following up their 2-0 victory at Cardiff with a creditable scoreless draw away to Watford last weekend.

The ninth-placed Canaries, who walloped Plymouth 6-1 before hitting another four goals in their home win against Luton last weekend, are looking to narrow the gap to the top six which currently stands at five points.

● QPR have failed to win any of their last eight league games against Norwich City (D4 L4), scoring more than one goal in just one of those matches.

● Norwich City are unbeaten across their last four away league games against QPR (W2 D2), while losing on just two of their last 10 such trips (W4 D4).

● QPR are unbeaten in their last three league games (W1 D2) and could keep three successive clean sheets for the first time since December 2023.

● Norwich are looking to win three successive league games for the first time since March last season, while the Canaries have scored 3+ goals in six of their last 13 league games, including each of their last two.

● Since the start of November, only Ben Doak (5) has more Championship assists than Norwich’s Jack Stacey (4), assisting in each of his last three league games. Indeed, since the start of last season, he’s one of only four defenders with more than 10 assists in the competition (11).
