Relegation is not guaranteed in the Championship this season as Cardiff City and QPR both face the risk of dropping down.
Cardiff slipped into the relegation zone after Derby's 2-0 win against Preston on Wednesday, while QPR, with a five-point advantage, could also find themselves in the thick of the relegation battle following a poor run of form since early February.
This sets the stage for an interesting showdown when the two teams meet in the capital on Saturday.
Team news
QPR's captain Steve Cook was not available for the loss to Stoke City but might make a comeback for this match.
Striker Michael Frey's fitness will be evaluated before facing the Bluebirds.
Midfielder Joe Ralls is unlikely to play again this season for Cardiff City due to a calf injury sustained during the international break.
Goalkeeper Jak Alnwick and Aaron Ramsey are also sidelined for the visitors.
The stats
Cardiff City's games in the Championship have seen an average of 2.72 goals per game this season, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five matches.
QPR, on the other hand, have had at least three goals in six of their last seven games, with the last two matches alone producing eight goals.
The team is currently on a poor run, having lost five of their last six matches.
Despite Cardiff's struggles, Callum Robinson has scored 12 goals in this season's Championship.
Prediction
Cardiff is facing a serious threat of relegation from the Championship this season, and QPR could also be pulled into the fight if they don't watch out.
Cardiff has gathered 40 points from 39 matches so far this season, placing them in the bottom three, while QPR is only five points ahead after a string of poor performances.
QPR has suffered seven of their 16 league defeats since early February, making it difficult to support them at home against Cardiff, especially after falling 3-1 to Stoke last Saturday.
Considering this, goals might be the focus in this match.
Six of QPR's last seven games have seen over 2.5 goals, as have four of Cardiff's last five matches.
They have recently lost 2-1 to Burnley, Sunderland, and Luton in March before winning against Blackburn by the same scoreline.
We might witness goals from both sides once again when they face each other, and backing over 2.5 goals could be the way to go.
