Preview: Queens Park Rangers vs. Middlesbrough

QPR vs. Middlesbrough

Championship leaders Queens Park Rangers welcome Middlesbrough to Loftus Road on Saturday.

Harry Redknapp's men have kept a clean sheet in their last six league games, winning five of them.

They also have a new signing in Javier Chevanton, although the Uruguayan may not receive international clearance in time for this weekend's match.

The visitors on Saturday, in contrast, have not kept a clean sheet since the second game of the season, which was also the last time they won.

Tony Mowbray will be without Rhys Williams, who was sent off in Boro's last game.
