QPR v Wolves Betting Preview Friday, 3rd Feb 2012 18:59 by LFW Pundits The boys are back after an enforced week off to preview our weekend game with Wolves and value elsewhere in the sporting markets. No betting preview prior to Chelsea because I was on the other side of the world and ran out of time. Excuses out of the way, we’re back this week. Andy made a profit of £21.50 in his Wigan column and £10 the week before that to reduce his season’s losses to £74.42, he’s been going in the right direction for a while now. A small loss of £2.42 for Brian pre-Wigan, ad a bigger £40 set back pre-Newcastle, reduces his profit for the year to £27.33. The Pro was wrong to tip a red card in the Newcastle game, although Shaun Derry was lucky to escape one and his prediction that Senegal would win the African Nations Cup fell flat as well, thankfully that means Armand Traore returns early. He was also wrong twice pre-Wigan as well. A rare lull in form for our odds compiler. Andy HillmanBack after a week's absence due to Clive's gallivanting around the globe. Actually called both QPR games right last week as well - had QPR down to beat Wigan, and had a Draw no bet for the Villa game. This week we're at home against Wolves, the start of a three game run against Wolves, Blackburn and Fulham that I fully expect us to get at least seven points from.QPR to beat Wolves by exactly two goals is available at 22/5 with Victor Chandler, and I fancy us to win by that margin. We'll be pretty much full strength, Faurlin aside, and it'll be interesting to see both Zamora and Cisse together upfront. Cisse's debut against Villa was pretty impressive, a massive improvement on anything we've had in recent times, and I'm hoping that he can continue that against Wolves. He's available at 11/2 with pretty much every bookie to score first, but I'm going with BetVictor, who will double the odds if he scores twice. Elsewhere, Van Persie is at home against Blackburn this week, BetVictor are almost already paying out on him being first goal scorer. He's 23/10 to score first, and they'll double it when he inevitably scores twice against them. Finally, my multiple for the weekend, and I've updated my rulebook when placing multiples to now not bet on the Serie A whatsoever until they decide what the hell is going on over there, and the favourite decides to win every so often. It really does appear that nobody wants to win the league, and it's making a mockery of the odds. I'm doing something different this week - I'm betting on the ‘both teams to score market’. I've gone for both teams to score in the Birmingham vs Southampton, Brighton vs Leicester and Cardiff vs Blackpool game, and both teams don't score in the Man City vs Fulham game. The odds on that fourfold are nearly 10/1! For the Weekend: QPR vs Wolves - QPR to win by 2 £15 @ 22/5 (BetVictor) Cisse to score first £5 @ 11/2 (BetVictor) Van Persie to score first £10 @ 23/2 (BetVictor) Fourfold accumulator - BTTS (yes): Birmingham vs Southampton, Brighton vs Leicester and Cardiff vs Blackpool, and BTTS (No): Man City vs Fulham - £10 @ 19/2 (Betfair) Brian PowerThe weather is going to play a big part this weekend with racing losing meetings and lower leagues calling off games on Friday.For this reason and due to having a week in work that ranks alongside a Bob Malcolm performance I am writing this on Saturday morning, so will concentrate on our game, the Premier League & the Six Nations. Wolves are in a run that has put Mick McCarthy under pressure a defeat here could see him sacked. We looked lively on Wednesday and I think we will get three points on Saturday. I liked the look of Cissie but will go for Zamora to open the scoring and for us to win 3-1. The Six Nations kick off and England have too many negatives to select, The French and Welsh lead the market and them so my France are 5/4 purely because they have home advantage in the Welsh game and the fixtures favour them. However I can't back them at that price so will go for Ireland at 5/1 and in the so tryscorer Market. Tommy Bowe has served me well in the past so will back him for top scorer in the tournament and to score first on Sunday. Blackburn are 11/1 to win at Arsenal and as Arsenal are playing poorly Rovers are worth a small bet - remember they have beaten United and drawn at Liverpool. For the Weekend: £10 Zamora first goal 15/2 £5 QPR to win 3-1 14/1 £12.50 Ireland to win Six Nations 5/1 £7.50 Bowe to be top tryscorer 11/1 £7.50 Bowe to score first v Wales. 11/1 £2.50 Blackburn to beat Arsenal. £5 acca Chelsea/ Man United draw 23/10 Sunderland 12/5 Everton 6/5 Previously Advised: £10 Spurs to win FA cup 8/1 £2.50 e/w Sunderland to win FA cup 50/1
