In this article, you’ll discover Today’s Championship Predictions from XpertStats tipsters.

- The Hoops are on a scoring streak at Loftus Road, finding the net in seven consecutive home appearances.
- Norwich City is currently unbeaten in their last two away fixtures despite their overall league position.

The Hoops have turned Loftus Road into a bit of a fortress lately, racking up four straight home wins. Julien Stephan has his side playing with real attacking intent, averaging 1.82 goals scored per match on home soil. Defensively, they aren’t perfect, conceding 1.36 goals per game at home, but their ability to outscore opponents has been key. With an 82% rate of matches going over 1.5 goals and a similar percentage for BTTS at home, QPR usually provides plenty of entertainment for the West London faithful.
Life on the road has been a struggle for Norwich City, as they haven’t tasted an away victory in ten attempts. Still, they aren’t pushovers offensively, scoring an average of 1.17 goals when playing away. Their defensive record is the main concern, leaking 1.58 goals per match on their travels. Interestingly, the Canaries have scored in their last six away games, contributing to a high 83% BTTS rate on the road. They are scrappy, but that lack of a clean sheet continues to haunt their survival hopes.
As we look at the numbers for this New Year’s Day fixture, the trend points toward a busy afternoon for the scoreboard operators. QPR’s prolific home form combined with Norwich’s inability to stop conceding makes for a fascinating tactical battle. While the Hoops are the favorites based on the table, the Canaries’ knack for finding the net away from home suggests this won’t be a one-sided affair. Considering the statistical overlap in scoring trends, Today’s Championship Predictions suggest we should expect a high-energy encounter where both backlines will be under constant pressure.
The statistical backing for Both Teams to Score in this fixture is incredibly high. Both QPR and Norwich have seen BTTS land in 74% of their total Championship matches this season. When we look specifically at home and away splits, the numbers get even more convincing. QPR has seen goals at both ends in 82% of their home games, while Norwich hits an 83% mark on the road. The Hoops have scored in seven straight at Loftus Road, but they also concede an average of 1.36 goals per game there. Norwich, despite their struggles, have scored in six consecutive away matches. Given that Norwich has failed to keep a clean sheet in 19 of their last 20 games, QPR is almost certain to score. However, Norwich's persistent scoring record on the road suggests they will exploit a QPR defense that rarely keeps things tight.
