Preview
The televised action on the main channels sees Brentford looking to continue their surge towards the top part of the table when they make the trip up the M1 to take on a Rotherham United side who are performing the best out of the three promoted team and who look to have learned the lessons from previous experiences in this league. The other match sees two sides in the lower half of the table meeting when Birmingham City take on Barnsley.
The highest side on show on Tuesday evening are AFC Bournemouth and they will be looking to go to the top of the table when they play host to Preston North End. The early kick off comes from Wales where Cardiff City meet Huddersfield Town while the other two matches sees something of a midlands derby taking place at Pride Park when Derby County go up against Coventry City while in the capital QPR welcome a Bristol City side to town.
Betting
I’m not a huge fan of going big on these midweek matches so on Tuesday night I’m going to take what I’m given and get involved in the one match which is the one between QPR and Bristol City at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium where I’m expecting to see an entertaining game and more than 2.5 goals between two teams who enjoy getting the ball down and getting it to their attackers, who possess the quality needed to find the net.
Bristol City will have been disappointed to lose to Reading at the weekend but we saw in that game that they can be vulnerable at the back but potent going forward. To be fair to the Robins they had delivered three clean sheets in succession prior to that but they were against three of the lower scoring teams in the division. I highlighted how QPR often score in every game ahead of their defeat to Brentford and they duly scored in that game too. Five of the last seven QPR games have had over 2.5 goals and I expect this one to continue that trend.
