West Bromwich Albion hosts Queens Park Rangers in round 9 of the English Championship. The match will be played on Friday, September 24th at The Hawthorns (West Bromwich)
West Bromwich players tried their hand in the Premier League last season. And as often happened before, they were too weak to gain a foothold there. But in the Championship, the task for the Throstles is obvious: to be among the leaders again and gain new promotion. In general, the bet on Valerien Ismael works, as the club has lost only to Arsenal in the cup (although with a crushing score of 0-6). But there is also an alarming symptom: the first five rounds brought four victories, then West Brom tied three times in September, and the opponents were not so formidable — Millwall, Derby County, and Preston.

Queens Park Rangers played in the Premier League not so long ago. And the Hoops looked pretty good there but eventually found themselves in the Championship. Scandals prevented them from going back, and there was even a threat of serious sanctions for financial fraud. As a result, under Mark Warburton, who has been working since 2019, QPR managed to consolidate the status of the middle peasant of this division. For example, the last draw ended with a modest 9th place. But the new start was successful for QPR: the championship began with six rounds without defeats (three wins and three draws), and the hoops eliminated two opponents in the League Cup (which is why Benitez's Everton came to London on September 21). But in the fall, the results clearly worsened. QPR still managed to snatch a draw against Reading, although the Royals were leading 3-1 in the 77th minute. But then the Hoops lost not only to leading Bournemouth but also to Bristol City.
West Brom gained three consecutive victories in head-to-head matches in 2018-2019, and it was ahead in the last game. Still, Queens Park Rangers managed to achieve an away draw in July 2020. The Throstles understand that they need to step up and return to the path of victories if they want to remain in the lead. The Hoops do not look like a serious barrier. We bet on the victory of the hosts.
Prediction for the match: West Bromwich to win
