Team News: Charlie Austin named on Queens Park Rangers bench

Charlie Austin has been named on the Queens Park Rangers bench for their meeting with Reading at the Madejski Stadium.

Despite coming off the bench to score the winner against Leeds United on his return to action at the weekend, Austin is named as a substitute as Matt Phillips leads the line for the visitors.

Leroy Fer is handed a recall in place of Yun Suk-young in the only change for the away side.

Reading skipper Paul McShane misses out due to injury, with Anton Ferdinand replacing him in defence against his former club.

Alex Fernandez is handed a starting spot for the hosts, while Hal Robson-Kanu is fit enough to earn a place on the bench.

Queens Park Rangers: Green, Perch, Hall, Onuoha, Konchesky, Sandro, Faurlin, Petrasso, Fer, Hoilett, Phillips Subs: Smithies, Angella, Chery, Henry, Luongo, Tozser, Austin
