David Prutton predicts the result of West Brom vs QPR
Sky Sports pundit David Prutton believes West Brom will find it tricky to get three points from their clash against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday afternoon.
The Baggies clinched a huge win over Blackpool on Tuesday evening, Carlos Corberan’s first as the new West Brom head coach.
Prutton believes, however, that back-to-back wins for West Brom may be a step too far against high-flying QPR despite the “massive” win on Tuesday.
The Sky Sports pundit has dropped his weekly predictions for the upcoming Championship games and declared the Baggies will lose to QPR 2-1.
“QPR haven’t had the best of weeks. It can happen when the games pile up this fast. They’ll want to get back on the horse though as things can spiral quickly in this league,” Prutton told Sky Sports.
“That was a massive win for West Brom on Tuesday night. But they still have a long way to go under Carlos Corberan to get out of trouble. I think QPR bounce back here with a win.
Back-to-back.
Back-to-back wins would go a long way right now for West Brom and would instil some faith in the Albion fans.
A win could potentially be good enough to take the Baggies to 19th place in the table, a far cry from where they want to be, but better than rock bottom.
West Brom will take courage from their away form, having lost only three of their eight away games this campaign.
Promotion dreams seem out of reach for now and the Albion needs to focus on getting themselves out of this utter mess they’ve created.
This new era under Corberan has brought a fresh and positive outlook to the club and hopefully, he’ll be able to bring some fresh faces to the club in January.
Picking up points before this is vital and QPR presents the perfect opportunity for some redemption.
West Brom will be without Karlan Grant, Daryl Dike and Semi Ajayi for the trip to London, the latter are likely to feature before the World Cup break.
The latter two have been a huge miss this season.
