Good evening and welcome to the iPro Stadium!
QPR have made the trip to Derby as they look to bounce back from their disappointing defeat against Aston Villa on Saturday.
They face the Rams who lost just one of their last nine games, which includes a 1-1 draw against Fulham at the weekend.
The Hoops are on a run of 15 games without a victory away from Loftus Road, and will be hoping to defy the odds with a victory over the promotion candidates.
As usual, we'll have all the build-up, action, reaction and analysis from a big night of Championship action!

Chance QPR

Luke Freeman
The attacking midfielder is being utilised in a much deeper role than usual in the absence of Massimo Luongo.
He’s part of a midfield two with Scowen, and so far seems to coping fine in a role which requires much more discipline.
