Huddersfield Town vs Queens Park Rangers Prediction: This will be a key contest for survival in the Championship

Huddersfield Town will welcome Queens Park Rangers at Kirklees Stadium in Game Week 12 of the English Championship. This will be a key contest for survival in the Championship. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Huddersfield Town form

Huddersfield Town will resume their Championship season after the second international break with 11 points from their first 11 games. The team has already experienced changes this season, with Neil Warnock leading them before announcing his departure in mid-September. Warnock left the team with eight points from seven matches, including consecutive victories over Rotherham United and West Bromwich Albion, as well as a draw with Stoke City.

Darren Moore was appointed as Warnock's successor, and his tenure started with a thrilling 1-1 draw against Coventry City, thanks to Michal Helik's injury-time equalizer. The team then followed it up with another 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town, despite taking an early lead through Delano Burgzorg. Although Huddersfield Town's unbeaten run in the league extended to five matches, they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Birmingham City and later played out a goalless draw against Sheffield Wednesday.

Returning to action this weekend with a three-point lead over the relegation zone, Huddersfield Town is determined to secure a victory and increase their cushion at the bottom of the league table. They have been winless in their last four Championship games under Darren Moore and are eager to earn three crucial points.

Huddersfield Town Predicted Lineup

Nicholls; Pearson, Helik, Lees; Edwards, Hogg, Rudoni, Ruffels; Thomas; Koroma, Burgzorg

Queens Park Rangers form

They are preparing to face Queens Park Rangers, who are hoping to improve their position in the lower part of the division by securing their third victory of the season. Last season, Queens Park Rangers finished in 20th place in the second tier of English football, narrowly avoiding relegation with a six-point cushion. Under the management of Gareth Ainsworth, they aimed to avoid relegation once again this season but have struggled, only earning eight points from their first 11 matches. Their most recent win came against Middlesbrough in early September, but they have only managed to secure two more points in the following six matches before the international break. This poor run of form has resulted in three consecutive losses, including a 4-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers in their last match. As a result, Queens Park Rangers currently sit in 22nd place, two points away from safety and three points behind their upcoming opponents. They desperately need a victory on Saturday to level with Huddersfield Town and prevent themselves from falling further into the relegation zone.

Queens Park Rangers Predicted Lineup

Begovic; Kakay, Clarke-Salter, Dunne, Paal; Colback, Field, Dozzell; Chair; Dykes, Armstrong
