Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Blackburn and QPR will score 2 or more goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Tony Mowbray or Julien Stéphan has served up too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.30 equating to approximately a 74% probability.
