Queen Park Rangers would have been disappointed with the way they closed their last season. In their last matches, they managed just two victories to go with two draws and three defeats. Their final position in the Championship table was 11th with 66 points. This also meant that they couldn’t earn a place in the promotion playoffs. With QPR set to play their eighth consecutive season in the second tier of English football, they’ll hope that they can produce a better display this time around and challenge for promotion to the Premier League.
Crawley Town have already begun their pre-season preparations. They came up against Eastbourne Borough at the start of the month and prevailed with a 1-0 win. Last season they could manage only a 12th position in the English League Two. With lots of scope for improvement still there, Crawley Town will be expected to make bold moves in the transfer window and strengthen themselves in every department.
With this being the first game of Queen Park Rangers’ pre-season, it is expected that there will be lots of rotations. Several academy and youth players might well some game time. Chris Willock who has recently recovered from injury is not in line to feature in the match. Crawley Town too will look to provide maximum players playing action to get them into optimal condition.
The pre-season friendly match between Crawley Town vs Queen Park Rangers will take place at Broadfield Stadium on Saturday at 7:30 pm IST.
