What happened

Queens Park Rangers were held to a 0-0 draw by Charlton Athletic at The Valley, missing the opportunity to leapfrog the league leaders and go top of the Championship. Neither side was able to break the deadlock in a match that leaves QPR in a strong position but short of the summit. The result means QPR remain in the promotion places, while Charlton earn a valuable point against one of the division's form teams.

Chance analysis

Dropped points in tight fixtures at the bottom of the table separate good Championship seasons from great ones, and QPR will view this as two points left behind at The Valley rather than one gained. Charlton, fighting for survival, executed a disciplined performance to nullify one of the league's most in-form sides. The draw keeps the Championship title race wide open and underlines how little margin for error exists in a division where the top spots change hands week to week.

Impact

QPR miss the chance to top the Championship table, slightly denting their title charge; Charlton earn a useful point in their survival bid.
