QPR’s unbeaten start in jeopardy at talented Nottingham Forest

QPR may still be unbeaten after 16 games of the Championship season, but there is every chance that this impressive run will come to an end against under-achieving Nottingham Forest.

Forest are down in 11th in the standings, with a lack of goals one of their biggest problems.

However, they are still unbeaten at the City Ground and are 8/5 to beat QPR to potentially jump into the play-off places.

Furthermore, Forest won their home game with QPR 5-0 in the Championship last season as Rob Earnshaw helped himself to a double.

The Welsh international is 11/2 to open the scoring against the team with the best away defensive record in the division.

QPR are 7/4 to beat Nottingham Forest, with the draw available at 11/5.

There are also a number of teams in the Championship looking to make ground into the promotion picture, with Leicester, Portsmouth and Doncaster all having play-off ambitions.

The last four meetings between Leicester and Derby have yielded just four goals, with the hosts striking just one of these.

Leicester are 11/10 to beat Derby for the first time in seven games and continue the improvement made under new boss Sven Goran Eriksson.

Derby currently lie in the play-off positions in fourth in the table after winning five of their last six league games and another victory over Leicester, which is priced at 5/2, would end Eriksson’s three-game unbeaten streak.

Portsmouth have improved markedly after a poor start to the season and could represent a solid home bet at home to Doncaster.

They are 1/1 to beat Doncaster, who have been massively inconsistent of late, trading wins, losses and draws.

Doncaster are 11/4 to take the three points from Portsmouth in what is the first game between the pair since 1983. See the full Portsmouth vs Doncaster match betting odds market.
