On Tuesday, Blackpool will play host to Queens Park Rangers at Bloomfield Road in the second round of the EFL Championship. The home team is on the verge of relegation after a particularly difficult season. After putting on a rather subpar performance in front of the goal, they were defeated 2-0 by Bristol City.
This season, Blackpool has played 36 games and finished 22nd in the league with just 32 points. When they play this week, they will be determined to get over their most recent results and start scoring important points.
Since manager Michael Beale left, QPR has had a terrible run of results and is currently in the bottom half of the table. The Hoops got off to a slow start under new manager Gareth Ainsworth, but on Saturday, the Hoops beat struggling Watford 1-0 away from home for their first win of the year.

Blackpool vs QPR Prediction :
Blackpool has only won one of their last 11 games in all competitions and has lost three of their last four games. They are, notwithstanding, unbeaten in their keep-going six games on home turf and will expect to augment their home benefit this week.
The Hoops’ most recent victory ended a five-game losing streak, and on Tuesday, they will look to continue that trend. However, they may lose here after struggling recently on the road to impress.
Prediction: Blackpool 2-1 Queens Park Rangers

Blackpool vs QPR Team news :
With Blackpool forward Gary Madine experiencing a knee injury at the end of the week, Morgan Rogers or CJ Hamilton could be utilized in the last third. Due to the possibility of a two-man suspension for ten yellow cards, Kenneth Dougall is likely to remain on the substitutes’ bench; however, Arsenal loanee Charlie Patino may be considered for a recall.
On the off chance that McCarthy dabbles with his backline, the arrival of James Spouse at focus back or left-back is plausible. After Lyndon Dykes’s return to the starting lineup over the weekend, Ainsworth may feel less pressure to overwhelm him with the win over the weekend. The Scotland international could be replaced by Jamal Lowe, who could move forward, allowing Luke Amos or Stefan Johansen to return to midfield as the team’s only change.
