Swansea
Queens Park Rangers and Swansea City take on each other in London in a highly-anticipated Championship game. QPR aim to build on back-to-back wins over WBA and Coventry, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Tuesday’s clash. All Osman Kakay, Seny Dieng, and Ilias Chair are on Africa Cup of Nations, while Sam McCallum remains in the recovery room.
The Swans, on the other hand, defeated Preston thanks to Ryan Manning’s goal. The Welsh outfit aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, but given their poor away record in the 2021/2022 season, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the capital club. Swansea City boss Russell Martin should have a full squad to choose from. Dutch attacker Joel Piroe is widely expected to lead the line for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (Andre Gray):
Wolverhampton-born striker Andre Gray is a product of the Shrewsberry Town youth academy who hit the limelight during his two loan spell with Luton Town. A no-nonsense forward endured a difficult childhood which left him with a four-inch scar on his left cheek after he got stabbed in the face in a gang-related incident back in 2011.
Fortunately, Andre Grey was pulled out of the gang lifestyle by his mother and close friends and focused on his football career. Having scored 57 goals in 111 appearances with The Hatters, Gray was prized away by Brentford in a club-record deal at the time. Just a season later Gray moved to Burnley where he hit 23 goals in 41 Championship appearances to emerge as a vital cog in his club’s Premier League push in 2014/15. After nine goals in 32 top-flight appearances with he Clarets, Gray was transferred to Watford for yet another club-record fee.
The Englishman’s prolific goalscoring record in the Football League was brought to a halt, however, with Gray scoring just five goals in 31 Premier League appearances during the 2017/18 season.
