The 2026-27 Sky Bet Championship season began with Queens Park Rangers (QPR) taking the top position in the table after a 3-1 comeback victory against Portsmouth. By late August, QPR maintained an unbeaten start to the season, securing seven points from three matches, including a 2-1 win over Blackburn Rovers. Despite showing resilience in comeback wins, the team has faced player availability issues. As of late August, QPR sits fourth in the league under manager Julien Stephan. The squad has been bolstered by summer signings Tariq Lamptey, Dennis Cirkin, and Glen Kamara. On September 2, 2026, QPR ~~is scheduled to host~~ hosted newly promoted Cardiff City at Loftus ~~Road on September 2, 2026. Managed by Brian Barry-Murphy, Cardiff City currently holds thirteenth position~~ Road. QPR secured a 2-1 victory, moving to second place in the Championship table with ~~three~~ 10 points from four matches. Rumarn Burrell scored both goals for QPR, netting the opener in the first half and doubling the lead early in the second half following ~~three~~ a through-ball from Ronnie Edwards. Perry Ng scored a late goal for Cardiff City, but the Bluebirds were unable to find an equalizer. The loss leaves Cardiff City, managed by Brian Barry-Murphy, searching for their first win of the season after four consecutive ~~draws against Wrexham, Derby County,~~ draws. Despite the result, Barry-Murphy stated that the players “retain belief and ~~Sheffield United.~~ are improving technically.”
