QPR welcome Millwall to the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium on Wednesday for a matchday 37 fixture in the EFL Championship.

The hosts come into this fixture on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Huddersfield Town on home turf. A second-half strike by Juninho Bacuna was enough to give the Terriers all three points.

Millwall were 1-0 victors away to Derby County. A goal on the stroke of halftime by Shaun Hutchinson helped the Lions to victory.

That win helped Millwall climb up to 10th on the table, while QPR's defeat saw them drop to 13th.

QPR vs Millwall Head-to-Head

This will be the 78th meeting between the sides. Millwall have a better record with 31 wins and 24 draws to their name. QPR were victorious on 22 previous occasions.

Their most recent meeting came on 8 December 2020. Second-half goals from Jon Dadi Boedvarsson and Ilias Chair ensured that both sides canceled themselves out in a 1-1 draw.

QPR have lost the momentum that propelled them out of the relegation zone at the start of the year. The Hoops have lost three of their last five league games and need to rediscover their best form.

Millwall have two wins from their last six games and will be looking to register consecutive wins for the first time since February.
