QPR v Leeds United result predicted by supercomputer
Leeds United travel to London to face QPR on Saturday in one of the day’s early Championship kick-offs.
The Whites returned to winning ways by defeating Millwall comprehensively at Elland Road in midweek after their shock loss to Portsmouth last Sunday.
Daniel Farke’s men stamped their authority as league leaders, defeating the Lions 2-0 at their home. With the win, Leeds have established a two-point lead at the top of the table. Sheffield United sit second and Burnley sit third with 77 and 75 points respectively.
QPR have faced defeat in their last four Championship games and are desperate to return to winning ways, but facing the league leaders is a herculean task.
QPR will be no match for Leeds
Marti Cifuentes’ QPR side are struggling and in a bad run of form. Visitors Leeds had temporary a hiccup against Portsmouth but are in a decent run of form, losing just one of their past 19 Championship games.
Leeds have set their sights on Premier League promotion and are on course to achieve it if they maintain their current intensity and form.
With QPR facing Leeds, Opta’s supercomputer has predicted the possible outcomes of the clash. The supercomputer has given a 56 per cent chance of Leeds picking up all three points at Loftus Road.
Given QPR’s poor form, the supercomputer gives the R’s only a 21 per cent chance of winning the match. There is also a 21 per cent likelihood of both the sides sharing the spoils in West London.
Manor Solomon must start vs QPR
Manor Solomon has been a hit at Elland Road since joining the Whites on loan from Tottenham at the start of the season. In 30 Championship games, the Israel international has netted seven goals and provided seven assists.
Solomon was on the fringes of the squad at Tottenham but a loan move has brought his career back on the right track. His explosive presence on the left-flank makes him a menace and he should start against the R’s.
The West Yorkshire club are already impressed with Solomon and want to sign the Israel international permanently next summer if they achieve promotion. Spurs are ready to offload the 25-year-old in the summer as they aim to reduce the wage bill.
Solomon was impressive against Millwall and almost got a goal, hitting the woodwork. He looks in fine touch and should start against QPR.
