QPR – Cardiff

QPR edged a tight home victory over Cardiff, 2-1, to climb to sixth place with 12 points after three wins, three draws and a single loss, their goal tally improving to eight for and five against. The result leaves Cardiff languishing in 21st spot, still winless with four points from four draws and three defeats, having scored seven and conceded eleven. The win also extended QPR’s dominance in the season’s head‑to‑head, the only encounter so far, while Cardiff’s hopes of turning the tide remain slim. Both sides will now look to build on the outcome as the league pushes further into the campaign.
