West London double can line your pockets this weekend - betting Friday, 28th Nov 2014 20:33 by Owen Goulding Professional odds compiler Owen Goulding looks ahead to QPR's home game with Leicester and the rest of the weekend football action. QPR host an early season relegation battle when Leicester come to Loftus Road. QPR may sit bottom of the main table but Leicester are comfortably at the bottom of the form table having only taken one point out of the last fifteen available to them, and failing to score in any of those five games. They have gone over 500 minutes without a Premiership goal - this really is a game that QPR need to be winning to have aspirations of staying up this season. Considering QPR's recent performances, most notably at home, it is surprising to me to see 11/8 QPR available. I can only assume this is in reaction to QPR's loss at Newcastle where Isla and more importantly, Vargas were both missing. The Chilean pairing should return here and it gives a completely different complexion to the Rangers team. The current betting odds - taking out home advantage, suggest that Leicester are a better side at present and this just isn't true. All my eggs in one basket but 11/8 looks a great price for another QPR win at home. The suspended Richard Dunne will be a loss but with the Leicester attack looking toothless at the moment, it should be more about what goes on the other end of the pitch. Recommended bet: QPR v Leicester - QPR to win @11/8 (Bet365/Stan James) Charlie Austin First Goalscorer @5/1 (BetVictor / PaddyPower) Elsewhere my bet of the weekend comes from across West London where in-form Brentford host a terribly out of form Wolves. Wolves are conceding goals for fun and Brentford are proving very tough opponents, especially at home. Four wins and a draw in their last five home games makes the 11/8 available a definite play against a Wolves side who have conceded eight goals in their last two games and who are still without the services of influential playmaker Nouha Dicko.
