Southampton vs Queens Park Rangers predictions and betting tips cover a 3pm Saturday Championship clash at St Mary’s, where an in-form Southampton host a QPR side who have been tough to beat on their travels.
Saturday 31 October brings a meeting of two in-form outfits, with Southampton’s superb home record up against QPR’s resilience away from Loftus Road. Anthony Eadson weighs up the betting below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has landed on two Premium Tips for this St Mary’s meeting, with the best available prices from our featured bookmakers.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Cyle Larin to score anytime | 11/10 (Sky Bet) | Cyle Larin is Southampton’s top scorer with seven league goals, and he has landed 13 shots on target from 36 attempts in 11 appearances. The Saints have scored 16 goals in six home games, and with Finn Azaz on five assists from midfield, Larin rarely goes short of service. QPR have also conceded seven on the road. So at 11/10 with Sky Bet, Larin to find the net looks generous. |
| Southampton to win to nil | 13/5 (Paddy Power) | Southampton have conceded just four goals in six home games, never more than once, and kept two clean sheets at St Mary’s. QPR have failed to score in four of their 12 league games, including two of six on the road. They have also lost all four meetings with the Saints, scoring only twice. The hosts are unbeaten at home and we predict a 2-0 win. That makes 13/5 with Paddy Power for a Southampton win without conceding a strong price. |

How Southampton go into the game
Southampton sit sixth on 20 points, a total that only tells half the story: a four-point deduction means their seven wins, three draws and two defeats would otherwise have them challenging right at the very top. The Saints beat West Ham 3-2 on the road last time out, a statement result against one of the promotion favourites.
St Mary’s has been a fortress. Southampton have won five and drawn one of their six home games, unbeaten there while scoring 16 and conceding just four. That home record is the foundation of everything they have done, and QPR will have to be at their very best to breach it.
How Queens Park Rangers go into the game
Queens Park Rangers come to the south coast eighth on 20 points and in good heart, fresh from a 5-0 demolition of Swansea at home. Rangers have lost only twice all season and have been a tough nut on their travels, losing just one of six away games.
On the road, QPR have won two and drawn three of six, scoring seven and conceding seven, so they travel with few fears. Finding a way past a home side yet to lose at St Mary’s is a different challenge, however, and their recent trips here have not gone well.
