Barnsley and QPR will battle for three points in an EFL Championship matchday 32 fixture on Saturday.

The hosts come into the game on the back of a 2-1 defeat away to Luton Town. Allan Campbell and Elijah Adebayo scored either side of Carlton Morris' goal to give the Hatters all three points.

QPR had to settle for a share of the spoils in a 2-2 draw with Middlesbrough on home turf. Dael Fry's first-half strike and Albert Adomah's second-half own goal saw Boro twice come from behind to leave the capital with a point.

The stalemate left the Hoops in the fourth spot, having garnered 52 points from 29 matches so far. Barnsley still occupy bottom position and are now eight points from safety.

Barnsley vs QPR Prediction

Barnsley's poor run of form has installed them as favorites to get relegated and their losing run does not look likely to end anytime soon.

QPR, by contrast, are on a fine run of form and are on course for promotion. We are backing the visitors to secure a comfortable victory in addition to a clean sheet.

Prediction: Barnsley 0-2 QPR
