QPR v Burnley
Kick Off: Saturday 26th April at 12:30
Both sides come into this game on a high, QPR having secured their Championship status for another season, whilst Burnley clinched an immediate return to the Premier League on Easter Monday, and will now have their eyes set on beating Leeds to the title.
⭐ QPR v Burnley Best Bet
➡️ Burnley to Win & Both Teams to Score with bet365 @ 4.75
The Clarets will have had five days to recover from their celebrations on Monday evening, after securing promotion by defeating their closest competitors, Sheffield United. Some might say that is job done, but Burnley will want to beat Leeds to the title.
In their way will be QPR, who looked to be in trouble as recently as two weeks ago, but after securing a couple of victories following their seven-game winless run, they can now look ahead to next season.
We expect that they will cause Burnley problems, given they have scored in 19 of 22 games at Loftus Road this term, including against Leeds and Sheffield United.
Burnley should have enough to overcome QPR, having won eight of their last 10 games.
👕 QPR v Burnley Predicted XI

🔍 QPR v Burnley Best Bet Players to Watch
🔵 Ronnie Edwards
Southampton loanee Ronnie Edwards has enjoyed a strong loan spell with QPR, with many R’s fans hoping they can persuade him back next season, but that looks unlikely given his parent club's relegation back to the Championship.
Despite only scoring one goal before this season, the centre back has been an unlikely goal threat, trebling his career tally during his loan spell. He has registered an attempt on goal in 11 of his 18 starts with QPR, with his odds underestimating his chances by 20% based on that ratio.
➡️ Ronnie Edwards - Over 0.5 Shots with bet365 @ 2.20 🔛
🟣 Jaiden Anthony
In a team which has not been famed for its attacking spark during this campaign, Jaidon Anthony has been a constant threat for The Clarets.
He is in really good form, having recorded a goal or assist in five of his last 10 starts, with six goal contributions in total. He has been operating off the left-hand side since the arrival of Marcus Edwards, which seems to have led to an improvement in his output, having spent most of the season on the right-hand side.
Jimmy Dunne will be a tough opponent, having impressed at right-back this campaign, but Anthony is a likely contributor to the goals we expect Burnley to score.

💻 QPR v Burnley Form and Tactics
Burnley have been the best side in the Championship over the last 12 games, emphatically answering criticism towards their perceived dull style of play by scoring just shy of two goals per game during that period, whilst maintaining their defensive resilience.
Their style has improved since the arrival of left-footed right-sided player Marcus Edwards, which has allowed Jaidon Anthony to play from the left-hand side.
Although QPR have regularly found the net at Loftus Road, as touched upon earlier, they have struggled to win games at home, with only Sheffield Wednesday and Hull winning fewer.
They have struggled to find a reliable source of goals, with Michael Frey their top scorer with just eight goals, and the next best being right back Jimmy Dunne with five.
