10 Key Match Facts Ahead Of QPR Vs Newcastle

2. 67 - Premier League-High Goals Conceded By QPR, With Newcastle Second On 61

QPR are equally as inept at defending as Newcastle, however, and they have conceded a Premier League-high 67 goals this season - including six during their most recent encounter, a 6-0 humbling at Manchester City. The Magpies are hardly much better in that department, though, and they have conceded 61 this season - the second-highest tally in the division. While QPR have a goal difference of -28, Newcastle's is -24 - and that could ultimately relegate them, because it is significantly worse than that of Hull City (-16), Sunderland (-20), Leicester City (-13) and Aston Villa (-20).
