LFW's tame professional odds compiler Owen Goulding says QPR are an attractive price to win on Neil Warnock's second coming at Loftus Road.

Well its back to supporting Warnock's Blue and White Army for the time being, and looking at the odds available for Saturday’s game, it looks like a win may actually be on the cards.

Preston are unbeaten in their last five games, including a creditable draw away at league leaders Brighton, but a closer look at their results shows they've only gained these points against the current division's whipping boys, Bolton and Charlton. Three scoreless draws make up the list. In fact, Preston haven't conceded in any of these games, so having not conceded in 450 minutes of football, it’s hard to rush to back QPR but I expect the Lancashire outfit will come across a hungrier Rangers side here, with the division’s best striker nearing full fitness again.

If this game had been priced a month ago, QPR would of been strong odds on favourites but recent scorelines for both teams mean that the current prices available of 13/10 QPR, 12/5 Draw and 12/5 Preston tells its own story. The prices seem to have gone too far to me and I think QPR are worth an interest. Let’s hope for renewed vigour both on the pitch and in the stands on Saturday.

Recommended Bet: QPR v Preston - QPR to win @ 13/10 (General)

Elsewhere, the magic of the FA Cup returns where such 'giants' as Colchester have to make a trip to Ruislip Manor to face Wealdstone, and the Class of 92 host the oldest team in the world. And if that's too much for you, then there is always Barwell v Welling. Paul Daniels and Dynamo would struggle to recreate such magic...

My bet of the weekend however comes in the top of the table Championship game between Hull and Middlesbrough. Hull’s home form has been excellent whilst Middlesbrough's away form hasn’t exactly pulled up any trees so I'm surprised to see Hull available at 8/5 to win this one. Worth an investment of your hard earned.

Bet of Weekend: Hull to bt Middlesbrough @8/5 (General)
