QPR enter this EFL Cup first round match in strong pre-season form, unbeaten with notable wins including a 3-2 victory over Fiorentina and a 7-0 win over Bromley. They have strengthened their squad with key signings like Glen Kamara and Tariq Lamptey and plan to field a strong starting XI. Millwall, while having made several signings, face a midfield injury crisis and showed mixed pre-season results. The head-to-head record is fairly balanced but QPR's home advantage and recent form give them the edge. Market odds also favor a QPR win with the home win priced at 3.10 and away at 2.18, indicating a competitive but slightly favorable outlook for QPR.
