Match preview

Neil Critchley got his reign as Queens Park Rangers manager off to the perfect start with a 1-0 victory over Preston in his first game in charge and his side can follow up with a victory over strugglers Cardiff.

The Bluebirds have taken just one point from their last four home games and goals have been a real issue for Mark Hudson’s side. Only Huddersfield have netted fewer times than Cardiff’s 20 in the second tier this season.

QPR’s chances may be boosted by the return of Ilias Chair, who did not feature heavily for Morocco at the World Cup but has three goals and six assists for the R’s this season.

Along with Chris Willock, those attacking talents may just give the away side the edge in this clash and they are fancied to extend their run of five wins from the last six head-to-heads between these teams.

Key stat

Cardiff have taken one point from the last 12 available at home
