Look for the draw at a 3/1 margin but save that for the in-play wagers as both will be going for the win here.

Manchester United are in desperate need of a victory here and if the papers are to be believed they may have a problem brewing with Radamel Falcao and his baffling omission from last week’s fixture against the aforementioned Southampton. They will be expecting a victory against QPR and the 8/13 price on there right now could be seen as very good value if they play anywhere near their ability.
It’s going to be fascinating to see if Falcao actually starts, he had just been coming into form and is looking to prove himself. With Louis Van Gaal insisted that it was a tactical move you have to admit that the action raises serious question marks. If Falcao does start, which one is going to show up? If he has something to prove and goes on to bang in 15 more goals this season then people will look back on this and just say it is another example of Van Gaal’s quirky genius.
You can back QPR for the victory at a 9/2 price tag while the draw can be seen in 3/1.
Tottenham Hotspur will be taking on Sunderland and they will be expecting to keep things moving forward here after dropping a big game against Crystal Palace, of all teams, last time out. Expect them to watch out early here and perhaps press on a bit late but you reckon they will be buoyed by playing in front of their home fans.
The bookmakers have priced Spurs at a very slim 3/5 for the victory here while the Black Cats are a competent side but have been limited on their travels so far this year. You can find them trading around 9/2 and that price will probably rise during the build-up to the match itself on Saturday. A price of around 5/1 or even 11/2 might be seen if the money piles in on Harry Kane and co. to put together another big performance.
The draw can be had at a 3/1 margin and that’s a bit short - as usual keep your eyes on the in-play wagers when you are looking to back a draw. This one really could come down to who scores first. You can also expect Spurs to win to be a popular selection in the accumulators - looking decent value with that Chelsea 4/7 for a straightforward double.
