History of the Queens Park Rangers v Preston North End fixture

Q.P.R. prepare to entertain Preston North End at Loftus Road on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 5 of the 13 previous games, with the Rangers winning just 3.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Loftus Road was just last season, in November 2005, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Queens Park Rangers have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. The Rangers's have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 9.

Preston N.E.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the North End have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Q.P.R. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 40 points from 39 matches. Preston N.E. are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 68 points from 39 games.
