Team News: Charlie Austin starts for Queens Park Rangers

Charlie Austin will start for Queens Park Rangers against Doncaster Rovers after shaking off a hamstring strain.

Harry Redknapp, whose side are going in search of a sixth consecutive home win, leaves Clint Hill on the bench after the defender missed Sunday's draw at Watford through illness.

Doncaster are without Chris Brown (ankle), James Coppinger (heel) and Billy Paynter (Achilles) for the game at Loftus Road.

The Yorkshire club are also missing defenders Rob Jones, James Husband and Jamie McCombe, who are all still sidelined through injury.

Rovers will be looking to complete a league double over the R's, having beaten the Hoops 2-1 at the Keepmoat Stadium in November.

Queens Park Rangers: Green; Simpson, Onuoha, Dunne, Assou-Ekotto, Barton, Kranjcar, Hoilett, O'Neil, Benayoun, Austin

Doncaster Rovers Turnbull, Quinn, Furman, Duffy, Macheda, Cotterill, McCullough, Wakefield, Wellens, Robinson, Stevens
