Stoke City are in really good form right now. They have won almost all of their recent matches, with only one loss along the way. QPR are having a much harder time - they haven't won any of their last five games, losing two and drawing three. So Stoke come into this one clearly looking like the stronger, more confident team.

There's no recent history between these two to look back on, so we can only go by how each side is playing. QPR have been involved in some higher-scoring games lately, but they've mostly been on the wrong end of them. Given Stoke's strong run and QPR's struggles, this looks like a match Stoke should win.
