Queens Park Rangers vs Oxford United Prediction and Betting Tips

Queens Park Rangers will host Oxford United at the Loftus Road Stadium on Wednesday in another round of the 2025-26 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have found good form after a slow start to their season and now sit ninth in the table with 11 points.

They played out a 1-1 draw away at Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend, heading into the break a goal down before Nicolas Madsen levelled the scores from the spot in the second-half to open his account for the season.

Oxford United, meanwhile, have failed to come alive this season and now look set to battle relegation for a second consecutive campaign in the English second tier. They were beaten 1-0 by last-placed Sheffield United in their last match and perhaps deserved more from the game, but failed to convert their chances.

The visitors sit 22nd in the table with just five points from seven matches and could end the game week at the bottom of the pile should they lose in the capital on Wednesday.
