Burnley have been made to wait for the English second division title courtesy of back-to-back draws at relegation-threatened Reading and Rotherham United. Vincent Kompany’s side were forced to share the spoils away to Rotherham despite taking the lead twice through Scott Twice’s 26th-minute opener and Manuel Benson’s effort nine minutes from time. The Clarets have recorded 26 second tier wins this season and their latest success came against Sheffield United (2-0) on April 10. Burnley remain undefeated in their 21 league-matches at Turf Moor during the 2022-23 season, recording 15 wins and six draws. Meanwhile, the Clarets thrashed QPR 3-0 in the reverse fixture at Loftus Road in December last year, thanks to goals from Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Ian Maatsen and Nethan Tella.
QPR, on the other hand, shared the spoils against Norwich on Wednesday night despite taking the lead through Lyndon Dykes’ ninth-minute effort. The result extended the Hoops’s winless run to seven games in the Championship, losing five in the period. Super Hoops have won only 11 league-games this term and their latest success came against Watford last month. Meanwhile, QPR have managed to win five of their 21 away-matches in the league this season. With three games remaining, RS may stay in the Championship if they can beat at least one of Burnley, Stoke City or Bristol City.
Burnely probable starting lineup: Muric, Roberts, Harwood-Bellis, Beyer, Maatsen, Cullen, Cork, Benson, Gudmundsson, Zaroury, Barnes
QPR probable starting lineup: Dieng, Drewe, Dunne, Clarke-Salter, Paal, Amos, Iroegbunam, Field, Lowe, Dykes, Chair
