QPR host bottom dwellers Derby County at Loftus Road in the EFL Championship on Monday, looking to end their six-game winless run.

The Hoops are stuck in a rut since February, winning just two of their last 13 games and none in their last six.

Mark Warburton's side lost five in a row before a 2-2 draw with Huddersfield Town on Friday arrested the slide.

They remain in 12th position of the league standings with 60 points from 42 games with survival guaranteed.

Derby, however, are still fighting for their lives, sitting in 22nd place with 31 points, nine off the safe zone.

QPR may not be perfect right now but this is a great chance for them to return to winning ways against a Derby side who've been awful on the road.

The Rams have lost eight away games in a row and could be set for another setback here, pushing them further into relegation.
