Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We don't believe there is a clear favourite to win this match, but what is clear is that the odds suggest it'll have a maximum of 3 goals. Our statistical analysis is inline with them too. QPR and Birmingham have served up plenty of under 3.5 goal games recently, and key performance statistics point towards an extension of that record. We feel confident predicting under 3.5 goals on Friday afternoon, and the bookies have it priced at 1.25.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think QPR are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 46% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.05.
