Goal Statistics

Queens Park Rangers's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Preston North End have conceded in each of their last 19 Championship matches. A PG of 1.6 for J. Stéphan's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for Preston North End of late. It has been 5 Championship games since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.4 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Saturday afternoon against Queens Park Rangers.
