REVIEW Watford vs Queens Park Rangers
IDDAAKOLIK POST-MATCH REVIEW

Watford came out on the right side of a one-goal game with Queens Park Rangers 2-1.

As we said in the preview, our model had Watford as the likeliest winner at 46%, and the 2-1 landed on that lead.

The goals picture was genuinely open: 49% for over 2.5, 52% on both teams scoring. The market went further still — the under-2.5 price closed at 1.74, about 57%.

By the numbers, Watford had 46% of the ball to Queens Park Rangers's 54%, shots finished 17-13, expected goals 2.06 to 0.50 — an xG gap that size says the one-goal margin undersold Watford's control.

The head-to-head backdrop: across their last 6 meetings in our records, Queens Park Rangers led the recent series with 3 wins, 1 drawn. Those games averaged 1.50 goals for Watford and 1.33 for Queens Park Rangers.
