QPR will square off against Blackburn Rovers in an EFL Championship matchday 11 clash on Saturday.
The hosts are coming into the game off the back of a 1-0 defeat away to Leeds United in midweek. Crysencio Summerville scored the match-winner in the ninth minute in a game that saw QPR striker Lydon Dykes end the game in goal following Asmir Begovic's injury-time dismissal.
Blackburn Rovers, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat away to Coventry City. Haji Wright stepped off the bench to score the match-winner in the 85th minute.
The defeat left them in 20th-spot, having garnered 10 points from as many games. QPR are two spots and two points below in the relegation zone.

QPR vs Blackburn Rovers Prediction
Two struggling sides will face one another, with defeat for either likely to leave them in the relegation zone. The hosts already find themselves in the bottom three at the moment, with their patchy home form leaving them in danger of falling out of the top two divisions for the first time in two decades.
Blackburn Rovers have fared slightly better, although their run of four defeats in their last five league games is likely to be a cause for concern for manager Jon Dahl Tomasson.
We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.
