Recent form
Queens Park Rangers
Queens Park Rangers have shown mixed form in their recent fixtures, with a respectable record of three wins, two draws, and one loss in their last six matches. The team have been relatively consistent in finding the back of the net, scoring in five out of their last six games and averaging 1.5 goals per match. However, their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding in five consecutive matches since their last clean sheet against Oxford United. QPR's most recent outing saw them secure their highest-scoring victory of this run, a 3-1 win over Watford. Despite their current 15th position in the Championship, the R's have displayed resilience, avoiding consecutive defeats and maintaining a positive goal difference of +2 over this period. Their ability to score consistently (67% of matches seeing both teams score) suggests they are capable of competing, even if they haven't been able to string together a significant winning streak.
Luton Town
Luton Town are currently experiencing a concerning dip in form, having lost their last three matches on the trot and four out of their last six. Despite sitting in 20th position in the Championship, the Hatters have struggled to find consistency, with their recent results showing a worrying trend of conceding more goals than they score. Their inability to keep a clean sheet for nine consecutive games is particularly alarming, highlighting defensive frailties that need addressing. While there haven't been any exceptionally high-scoring games in their recent fixtures, the team's goal difference of -3 over the last six matches underscores their difficulties at both ends of the pitch. With an average of just 0.83 goals scored per game compared to 1.33 conceded, Luton Town face an uphill battle to improve their league standing unless they can swiftly reverse their current form.

Recent home/away form
Queens Park Rangers
Queens Park Rangers have shown impressive form at home recently, with a notable four-game winning streak in their last four matches at Loftus Road. This run has seen them score an impressive 10 goals whilst conceding only 2, including two clean sheets. The Rangers have been particularly prolific in front of goal, averaging 2 goals per game in their last six home fixtures. Their most recent home match against Watford was a high-scoring affair, ending 3-1 in QPR's favour. Despite their 15th position in the league, QPR's home form has been a bright spot, with 67% of their recent home games seeing over 2.5 goals scored. The only blemish on their recent home record was a heavy 4-1 defeat to Middlesbrough, but they've since bounced back impressively, suggesting a newfound resilience at Loftus Road.
Luton Town
Luton Town's recent away form has been dismal, with the Hatters enduring a six-match losing streak on the road in the Championship. During this run, they have conceded a worrying 17 goals whilst only managing to score 4, highlighting their defensive frailties and attacking struggles away from home. Particularly concerning for Luton are the high-scoring defeats they've suffered, including a 5-1 thrashing at Middlesbrough and a 4-2 loss to Norwich. Their inability to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches, coupled with the fact that 67% of these games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggests that Luton are struggling to contain their opponents whilst also failing to pose a significant threat themselves. This poor run of form has contributed to their precarious position in the league, sitting 20th with just 25 points from 25 games.
