Stoke City host QPR at the Bet365 Stadium in the EFL Championship on Saturday, with both sides having similar seasons so far.
Stoke City are currently 14th in the league, five points behind their opponents. Michael O'Neill's side have been in inconsistent form of late, having only won three of their last five games. They will look to climb up the table with a win against QPR on Saturday.
QPR are currently 10th in the table, three points off the playoff spots. After a terrible run of results, Mark Warburton's side finally picked up a win against Derby County last time out. They will hope to take that momentum into the game against Stoke on Saturday.
Both sides will want to win the game and that should make for a well-contested matchup.
