Match Preview
So a nice easy start for our temporary manager, John Eustace, as we head to top of the table Norwich, for a Saturday lunchtime kick-off, live on sky. Norwich find themselves 5 points clear at the top in no small part due to the 24 goals scored by Teemu Pukki. They have won their last 7 games, after a 3-1 defeat by Preston on 13th February.
We, on the other hand, have been pretty poor of late, and I know that is putting in mildly. We've lost 3 and drawn 2 of our last 5 games, with our last win being a 1-0 victory over Leeds at the end of February. With Mclaren gone we can only hope that things will improve, and hopefully Eustace can sort things out and get the few points we need to stop any late scares coming along.
From the official;
Can the R’s dent Norwich’s promotion push?
JOHN Eustace could have hardly asked for a more challenging task for his first match in interim charge of QPR as the R’s take on table topping Norwich at Carrow Road live on Sky Sports.
It’s been a challenging week in W12 with the club deciding to relieve manager Steve McClaren of his duties following a poor run of form in 2019.
That means Eustace will temporarily take charge of a Rangers side lacking in confidence and needing a change of fortune for the seven remaining games of the campaign.
In contrast Norwich are enjoying a memorable season, which looks more than likely to end in promotion to the Premier League.
The Canaries had a slow start to the campaign but their form in recent months has been excellent and Daniel Farke’s side now find themselves with a seven point gap to third place.
It’s been over ten years since the R’s last won in Norfolk and recent trips to that part of the country have not been kind including a 4-0 defeat back in 2017.
Can Eustace and his side find a way to get something from a tough away fixture
