Queens Park Rangers - Derby County betting tips and odds

Though Queens Park Rangers are the favourites between these two teams, this is a fairly balanced matchup. All three possible outcomes of a Result bet are quite possible, which at least means we may get to see an exciting game.

While Derby County may manage to claw their way to a win yet, it will be quite a struggle. As we can see thanks to the 3.35 betting odds for an away win, the odds are stacked against them – though it’s still manageable.

The hosts returned from their most recent Championship trip with a point in their bag. Based on the betting odds available, it was always going to be a tight game and The Hoops can be satisfied with the fact they held level both at the halftime mark and after the full-time whistle.

The Rams’s victory in the previous round caught most spectators by surprise – especially their opponents Fulham. They appeared to be heavily outmatched going in, and predictably fell behind in the first half. The narrow 2:1 victory was completely unexpected, and it puts their current form in a very favourable light.

After recording more than 5 concessions in the previous 3 home games alone, confidence in The Hoops and their ability to bank on home-field advantage is shaky.

Derby are performing rather sub-par whenever they play away. For instance, they have more than 5 conceded goals spread over their most recent 3 away games.

According to the recent head-to-head records, The Hoops already has a win over the away team recorded earlier in the season. It was a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless, justifying the 2.25 odds on a home win.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
