History of the Queens Park Rangers v Blackpool fixture

QPR prepare to entertain Blackpool at Loftus Road on Saturday evening, aiming to maintain a near-perfect record against their opponents. The Rangers have claimed victory from 5 of the previous 6 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Loftus Road was less than a year ago, in October 2002, the Rangers carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a League Division Two match.
