Team analysis

How does QPR arrive?

QPR has shown a solid performance in recent days, with a record of 4 wins in its last 5 games. Their last victory was a resounding 4-1 win over Leicester on December 20. However, the team has also had some ups and downs, drawing 1-1 against Portsmouth and losing 2-1 to West Bromwich in their last game, showing that although they are fit, they can be vulnerable.

The state of Norwich

Norwich have been in a constant fight to get out of the bottom of the table, and are facing a critical situation. Placed just above Sheffield Wednesday, the team has gone on a four-match unbeaten run, but in their last game they lost 1-0 at home to Watford. This defeat could have affected the team's morale, crucial to face the match against a rival in better shape.
