Brentford have had a moderately successful season, but their hopes of reaching the playoffs are long gone, and they just want to let the fans enjoy the final fixtures. Brentford won their last three home fixtures and they are in a positive mood. Queens Park Rangers lost five games in a row and are still not safe, needing three points to avoid the drop. Queens Park Rangers are much more motivated in this derby, and that could be of importance.
Even though Queens Park Rangers took no points from their last five games, it should be noted that they had a tough schedule against Derby County, Aston Villa, Brighton, Bristol City, and Sheffield Wednesday, and lost all the fixtures by a one-goal margin. In short, Queens Park Rangers were unlucky, and luck should change sooner rather than later – possibly against Brentford who are not really motivated. The odds on Queens Park Rangers winning are extremely good at 3.75, and that is a nice value bet. Brentford found the net in all their fixtures in 2017 but one, and that means that both teams are likely to score. The odds stand at 1.53.
