Queens Park Rangers Cardiff City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be for both teams to score at least one goal. It's certainly expected to be an even game, but both teams need to react to the irregular momentum they're going through, with Wigan in particular having had negative results. It's also worth noting that the “Both Score - Yes” market has won 11 of Cardiff's last 12 away games.
