Peterborough vs QPR prediction, preview, team news and more | FA Cup 2021-22
Peterborough host QPR at the Weston Homes Stadium in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.
Peterborough have been woeful this season. Darren Ferguson's side are currently 22nd in the EFL Championship and have lost three of their last five games across all competitions. They will hope to turn things around with a win against QPR on Saturday.
QPR, on the other hand, have been flying of late. Mark Warburton's side are currently on a seven-game unbeaten streak across all competitions and will be going into the game off the back of a 4-0 win against Reading last time out. They should be confident of winning the game against Peterborough on Saturday.
Both sides will be looking to progress to the next round of the competition and that should make for an interesting matchup.
Peterborough vs QPR Head-to-Head
Peterborough have slightly edged the recent head-to-head record between the two sides, having won three of their last five meetings, with QPR winning only one.
Peterborough came away as 2-1 winners in their league fixture earlier this season. Goals from Harrison Burrows and Siriki Dembele were enough to secure the victory after Ilias Chair gave QPR the lead on the night.
