The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Queens Park Rangers to win

Queens Park Rangers vs Watford has all the makings of a competitive battle between two sides that are both eyeing an important win. But we are ever so slightly leaning toward Queens Park Rangers to win on the 1X2 market.

Queens Park Rangers will enjoy home advantage, which they have capitalised on with their strong form at home. They remain good value to win with their odds, and we expect them to pay out those odds with all three points at home.

👉 Our prediction is: Watford to win the 1st half

Watford will head in to face Queens Park Rangers with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Watford to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Queens Park Rangers, at least until half-time.
