Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's fairly unlikely that this game will serve up 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. Sunderland and QPR haven't typically treated their fans to thrillers of late, whether that be in the Championship individually or when going head-to-head. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.25.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Sunderland are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 47% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.60.
