To get back to winning ways
To get back to winning ways, Millwall know that their defense needs to be solid again. As they did a few matches ago, when they went four games without a clean sheet. Despite the defeat on the last matchday, the team created chances and even opened the scoring. However, they failed to finish and ended up being beaten 3-1 by Middlesbrough, an exaggerated scoreline for the balance of the match. Playing away from home, where they haven't been beaten in two games - a win and a draw - Millwall are looking to get back to winning ways.
Millwall
Millwall are in sixteenth place in Championship 23/24 with 32 points. After being close to the relegation zone, the team managed a good run a few weeks ago and with three wins in a row managed to open up ten points in this fight. However, the defense, which has done well in this recovery, has suffered in the last two matches - 3 goals in each. The attack did well in those games, managing to find the back of the net, but it wasn't enough to avoid defeat.
QPR in the last match
Last time out, QPR hosted Watford, confident of their good FA Cup run. The team did well, creating more chances than their opponents, but to no avail, they were beaten again at home. With their third defeat in a row, Queens Park Rangers are losing confidence with each round, as well as seeing the gap to the first team outside the Z-3 widen from 4 to 5 points. On the road, they haven't won in five matches - four defeats in a row. They've also conceded at least two goals in their last three games, making it difficult for them to have any chance of staying up.
QPR to get out of the relegation zone
Mathematically, it's still possible for QPR to get out of the relegation zone. However, it seems that psychologically the team has already given in and is doomed to the drop. The team hasn't won in eight games, and has picked up just two points in that stretch - six defeats have been suffered. They have a very limited attack, averaging 0.8 goals per game. However, they have managed to score in their last three matches, despite losing all of them
Under 3.5
QPR are coming off a very poor run, scoring few goals and suffering from their defense. Millwall, on the other hand, haven't conceded a goal in their last few away games, but their attack hasn't been as effective either, scoring just once. For this reason, we're likely to see few goals in this clash, with the teams looking first and foremost to keep a clean sheet in order to try and win even in a tight game.
Tie trend
It's sure to be an even match, with both teams looking to win. Both teams are coming off elimination from the FA Cup and defeat in the Championship. Millwall haven't won at home in five games, but they've been scoring goals, and if they adjust their defense they could get back on track. Millwall won their last game as visitors, but it was the only one of the last five they've played. So it's likely to be a tough game, with a draw the likely outcome.
Loftus Road
Queens Park Rangers and Millwall face off this Saturday (20) at 12 noon Brasília time at Loftus Road in London, England. QPR's poor run of form continues, as they've gone winless and are getting more and more desperate to avoid the drop. Millwall, on the other hand, have improved, despite their recent negative results, and are currently in a comfortable position in the competition. Who's better, QPR at home, despite their bad run of form, or Millwall winning again?

TIME AND PLACE!
QPR are back in Sky Bet Championship action on Saturday for the first of two mammoth clashes in W12.
Millwall are the opponents at MATRADE Loftus Road this weekend, before the visit of Huddersfield Town, with Martí Cifuentes’ side initially facing a battle with the Lions as we look to kickstart 2024 and continue in our battle with the drop.
The clash with Watford last time out certainly proved to be a frustrating one, as despite Lyndon Dykes late effort Jake Livermore’s second-half double wrapped up all three points for the visitors.
However, our south London opponents, this time out head across the capital looking to build on a somewhat solid opening few months under new boss Joe Edwards and go into this one 10 points above the relegation zone.
