Squad sheets: Queens Park Rangers v West Bromwich Albion

Two teams struggling for consistency meet at Loftus Road. Queens Park Rangers, in particular, have perplexed their followers with the manner in which they have switched from victory to defeat from one week to the next. Most recently, a 3-2 win at Stoke was followed by a 2-1 loss at Norwich and, as such, it is difficult to say with certainty how they will fare against a West Bromwich Albion side that has just lost Zoltan Gera to injury for the rest of the season. Joey Barton, meanwhile, returns from suspension for the hosts.
