-----------------------------------

Queens Park Rangers will be looking to draw level on points with Millwall when the London rivals meet at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium on Wednesday evening.  

 

The visitors beat Derby County 1-0 on Saturday to move three points in front of QPR, who lost 1-0 at home to Huddersfield Town on the same day.  

 

Match preview  

QPR hit a great run of form between the turn of the year and the end of February, but they have now lost three of their last five games, two of those at home.  

 

Juninho Bacuna scored the only goal in Saturday's clash with lowly Huddersfield - a result that leaves Mark Warburton's side 13th in the table.  

 

The Rs are 15 points off the playoffs and 14 points above the relegation zone, meaning that they are now effectively jostling for position in midtable.  

Millwall just about still have something to play for between now and they end of the campaign, as they are 12 points off the top six with 30 more points to play for.  

 

Realistically, though, Gary Rowett will know that promotion is not attainable this season, with a top-half finish now the likely target.   

 

The Lions' form has been rather patchy of late, although they did beat Derby last time out through a Shaun Hutchinson header on the brink of half time at Pride Park.  

 

Millwall have now lost just one of their last six away matches and have the sixth best record on their travels in the division.  

 

For comparison, the Lions' 27 points from 18 away games is two more than QPR have managed from the same number of home matches.  However, not since October have they won successive away league games, while QPR have lost back-to-back games only twice this campaign.  

 

This is a fixture the Rs tend to do well in, meanwhile, having gone unbeaten in eight home league matches against Millwall, winning each of their last two.
