Mark Hughes backs Djibril Cisse to "spark"

QPR boss Mark Hughes thinks that Djibril Cisse will have a great incentive to score against Liverpool tonight.

Queens Park Rangers manager Mark Hughes believes that Djibril Cisse will have more of an incentive to clinch three points for the struggling side as they prepare to face the striker's former club Liverpool tonight.

The Frenchman, who has scored two goals for QPR since his arrival in January, has been vocal about his desire to score against his former employers and Hughes is confident that the 30-year-old will find the net at Loftus Road.

"We might gain a little extra edge to his general play because of the fact he is playing against his previous club," said Hughes. "Given it is Liverpool, I'm sure there will be some extra spark from Djibril."

QPR are in danger of dropping back down into the Championship as they currently sit in the relegation zone alongside Wigan Athletic and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
