Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Blackburn Rovers to win13/10 (with bet365)Blackburn produced a fine 2-1 win over Middlesbrough last weekend and Ewood Park is a tough place to visit. QPR were held to a 0-0 draw by Bolton and travel as slight underdogs. Tony Mowbray has returned to the dugout and has provided some much-needed cheer for the Blackburn faithful. Rovers were unlucky not to take three points off Wolves on the opening day of the season and can continue their strong start here.
Andri Gudjohnsen to score5/2 (with Virgin Bet)Andri Gudjohnsen scored a header from a corner against Middlesbrough last weekend to make it two from two this season. The son of Eidur Gudjohnsen found the net against Wolves the week prior and readers of Squawka will be aware we recommended him to score at 7/2 against Boro. He’s a little shorter at 5/2 this week, but there’s still plenty of juice left in the price.

How Blackburn Rovers go into the game

Blackburn will be buoyant after a 2-1 win over promotion-fancied Middlesbrough last weekend. Ewood Park is a difficult venue and they will look to build momentum against QPR.

Rovers are well-organised and dangerous on the break, and that win will breed belief. Backing up a big result at home is the aim.

How Queens Park Rangers go into the game

QPR were held to a 0-0 draw by Bolton last time out, a cautious start to the campaign. Goals have been in short supply, and their away form needs to improve.

Well-drilled but lacking a cutting edge so far, QPR will look to frustrate Blackburn. A more clinical display is required if they are to take something from Ewood Park.
