Austin Powering His Way To Goals
Having been prolific at lower levels, the QPR striker is shown signs of making the grade in the Premier League as well.
West Ham may be seen as a home banker to win this London derby but Charlie Austin looks good value to find the net anytime at best odds of 11/4 (Paddy Power).
The QPR striker scored a stunner at Southampton last week to take his tally to two in five and it should be more after he saw a penalty saved against Hull on the opening day.
The 25-year-old grabbed 28 in all competitions last term in the Championship and is always looking a threat even at this higher level. Austin has averaged 3.4 shots per game so far, that’s more than Rooney and Aguero, and almost on a level with Costa.
Against a Hammers side who are the only team yet to keep a clean sheet, he must be a bargain here.
