Bristol City vs QPR Betting Tips

Bristol City are an inconsistent side and they have at times shown glimpses of the quality that saw them cruise to the League One title last term but they have been all too rare in truth. They are currently just outside the relegation zone but only 1 point and 1 place separates them from Charlton in 22nd.

A 2-1 win at Huddersfield last weekend lifted some of the gloom given they’d been well beaten by Rotherham and Blackburn prior to that but they came crashing back down to Earth with a 4-0 loss at Derby on Tuesday night.

QPR meanwhile were fighting back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 against unbeaten Brighton thanks to 2 goals from Charlie Austin. It extended the West London side’s unbeaten record to 4 games and with Austin back in the team and back in the goals, things should in theory only get better.

There is still some real quality in this QPR side and it’s a bit of a mystery why they were finding goals a bit hard to come by. Against a Bristol City side that has the 2nd worst defence in the league, they should get plenty of chances here.

Bristol City have conceded 2 or more goals in 6 of their 10 home games in the league this season but have only failed to score twice themselves. Therefore odds of 43/40 for there to be 3 or more goals here look really tempting.

The hosts are capable of springing a surprise every now and then but with only 4 wins to their name this season, you can’t rely on them. Therefore consider backing an improved QPR side to signal their genuine play-off credentials with a 3-1 win at tempting odds of 22/1.
