Sunderland vs QPR prediction
Sunderland, under the management of former Lorient boss Regis Le Bris, have been coasting for the last month and a half of the campaign and the Black Cats need to switch on quickly. Their young squad come into this one on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Oxford United to mean they have endured four successive defeats in the league.
They now face a Queens Park Rangers side that have propelled themselves into the middle-of-the-table after a shocking start to the campaign but R’s manager Marti Cifuentes is talking himself out of Loftus Road with reports suggesting the Spaniard has already held talks with West Bromwich Albion ahead of the final day.
Sunderland need some sort of performance to cling on to ahead of the playoffs and against a rabble of a QPR side that lost 5-0 to Burnley last week is the ideal team to face when needing that.
