We said: Cardiff City 3-1 Queens Park Rangers

Cardiff will be full of confidence after their performance against Leeds last time out, and the home faithful will be expecting maximum points against an out-of-form QPR side. The R's need a decent performance to ease worries of a fruitless campaign, but we cannot envisage them getting anything from their trip to South Wales this weekend. Read more.
