Fulham will be hosting relegation threatened QPR at Craven cottage on Monday night. This will be one of the last chances for QPR to get out of the relegation zone.

Harry Redknapp’s men are currently seven points adrift of safety with only seven matches remaining after this encounter. Hence, they are expected to fight to their best in the hope of catching the likes of Wigan and Aston Villa. Fulham, though, have been one of the inform teams in the league since the turn of the year. Hence, Redknapp will be aware of the fact that getting three points from this difficult away match will not be easy.

Further, the mini revival that the club had in the form of two back-to-back victories a few weeks ago appeared to have come to a halt following the 3-2 defeat against Aston Villa last weekend. This defeat was especially bad for the club given that it just increased the amount of points they needed to get to safety. Wigan’s 1-0 win over Norwich also means that QPR need seven points just to reach the final safety positions. Redknapp has said that the club needs to target at least four victories from the remaining matches in order to have any hope of survival.

This match is expected to have lot of goals. Bet Victor is one of the companies that is giving even money on the odds that there will be more than 2.5 goals in the game. They have also placed an odds of 3/4 for both teams to find the back of the net. This is an exceptionally good odd given that both teams have been in a good goalscoring form over the last few matches. The form of striker Dimitar Berbatov is especially positive for Fulham ahead of the match.

For many years sports teams have been sponsored by large corporations whose brands have become household names, and to name just a few there are Nike, Adidas and Fosters.

In the past tobacco companies played a big role in sports sponsorship, though today that has been banned in much of the world. However, since tobacco sponsorship lost its grip, there has been a growing trend for the gambling industry to become involved in sports sponsorship, and it has generally been good for sport as a whole that today many sports teams are sponsored by casinos and online gambling companies.

Looking first at football in the UK, in the Premier League alone several clubs have online casino and gambling sponsors. Aston Villa is sponsored by Genting Casinos; West Brom and Wigan have signed sponsorship deals with Bogdod and 12 BET; and Sunderland, Bolton Wanderers, Swansea and Wolves are all in sponsorship talks with various gambling companies.

In the world of motorsport, although currently there are no online casino sponsors of Formula One this is not the case in other areas of the sport. For instance Bwin is a major sponsor of MotoGP, which is the top level of motorbike racing.

Horse racing is another area where gambling company sponsorship plays an important part, and many of the major steeple chase and flat horse racing events are named after a gambling sponsor and several Eventing teams are similarly sponsored as are certain competitions.

In Australia gambling is the national pastime and more Australians gamble that the nationals of any other country, so it is not surprising that many sports teams are hoping to have casino and online gambling company sponsors.

These include several Aussie Rules football teams and there are ongoing talks between Australian Cricket and gambling company sponsors. There are even rumours that the blackjack favourite Lucky Nugget might be interested.

Despite some resistance in some quarters, gambling sponsorship of sport is here to stay, and it is proving to be beneficial for sport as a whole.
