Squad sheets: Queens Park Rangers v Chelsea
QPR have not won this derby since 1995, albeit only seven meetings ago, so this would be a timely occasion to end their 15-year wait for a home win in the top flight. They have shown only flashes of form to date this term at Loftus Road as a hastily assembled squad become familiar with each other. Chelsea, in contrast, appear to be adjusting to life under André Villas-Boas and have found their rhythm. The trio of John Terry, Juan Mata and Didier Drogba will surely return to the starting line-up as the visitors aim to take advantage of the only two sides above them in the table meeting at Old Trafford.
