Team News: Richard Dunne starts for Queens Park Rangers against West Ham United

Defender Richard Dunne has been recalled to the Queens Park Rangers first team for their home game with West Ham United this afternoon.

Dunne replaces right-back Mauricio Isla in the starting XI as the Hoops opt for a 3-5-2 formation.

They also welcome back midfielder Leroy Fer to the squad, and he starts on the bench after two months out with a knee injury.

West Ham have made three changes to the side they fielded against Manchester City last time out.

Kevin Nolan and Matthew Jarvis are recalled, while 18-year-old Reece Burke makes just his third appearance for the Hammers at centre-back.

Winston Reid, Alex Song and Carlton Cole all miss out.

Queens Park Rangers: Green, Onuoha, Dunne, Caulker, Hill, Barton (c), Henry, Sandro, Phillips, Austin, Zamora Subs: McCarthy, Isla, Young, Kranjcar, Taarabt, Wright-Phillips, Fer
