THE PREDICTION
QPR ended a run of nine Championship matches without victory last time out, as striker Charlie Austin enjoyed a dream first appearance back at his old club, netting the first goal in a 0-2 win for the Hoops over Luton. After over two weeks without a Championship fixture, they’ll be hoping to finally back that win up against Cardiff in South Wales. The Bluebirds were narrowly beaten by Norwich this past weekend, their fourth straight league defeat and against the striking power of Austin partnered with Lyndon Dykes, the hosts have a serious amount of firepower to contend with here and for that reason, QPR should be considered draw no bet.
