Back QPR to finish with a win - betting
Friday, 2nd May 2014 23:10 by Andy Hillman

LFW pundit Andy Hillman looks ahead to the final weekend of regular Championship action and value elsewhere in the sporting markets.

A single winner for me last time out, as Man Utd dispatched Norwich with ease @ 6/4. To be fair, even David Moyes couldn’t have cocked that one up. Have to have a bit of a chuckle at last week’s Champions League recommendations — I suggested Bayern and Chelsea to win at 3/1.

NAP of the Week: Catania vs AS Roma — Roma win to nil @ 7/4

So, Catania, bottom of the table, host Roma, second in the table and would have won Serie A this year if it wasn’t for record breaking Juventus. Roma, as I’ve mentioned pretty much every week, have the best clean sheet record in the league, and probably Europe. Catania have the worst scoring record in the league, they’ve failed to score in half their games. Oh, and did I mention that Roma have won their last nine on the spin? Roma to win to nil at nearly 2/1? Madness.

QPR related bet: QPR to win @ 5/4

It’s an end of season dead rubber, so technically anything could happen and this could end up being one of those insipid goalless draws where Shaun Wright-Philips goes up against Barnsley’s SWP equivalent (almost certainly on the same money as well...). QPR however, have something to play for — the playoffs on Friday. With Charlie Austin certain to get at least an hour, and assorted other first teamers looking to get minutes under their belt and looking to impress before Friday, QPR should be far too strong for Barnsley. A win at better than evens looks tempting.

Easiest Ever Home Treble: Man Utd, Arsenal & Chelsea to win @ 6/5

Man Utd vs Sunderland, Arsenal vs West Brom, and Chelsea vs Norwich. All absolute home bankers — there’s nothing much else to say. It won’t make you massively rich, but better than evens on these three to win looks pretty nailed on, and all three should be including in any accumulators you do this week.

West Ham vs Spurs — Spurs to win @ Evens

Interesting contrast between these two teams at present — West Ham have lost four on the spin, but Sam Allardyce looks bullet proof. Spurs are on one of their best runs of the season, having won four of their last six, yet Sherwood is almost guaranteed to get the bullet. Spurs actually have one of the best away records in the league, and are currently free scoring, whereas West Ham got to 37 points and then went on holiday. I’ll take Evens for an away win.
