Rotherham – QPR preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Rotherham vs QPR lineups.
Rotherham
The Millers lost their local derby vs Sheff Wed 0-2. Rotherham once again looked way too passive away from home and so far 8 of the 9 points have been collected on home turf.
The squad remains badly crippled with all areas of the pitch weakened right now. Centre-backs Humphreys and Blackett are long-term absentees. Another centre-back Hall remains a serious doubt. This forced 38-year-old Peltier to start often lately.
In midfield, Lindsey and Ferguson, regulars last year, are yet to play this season due to injuries. At least, Odoffin is over a minor problem and he could start for the first time in a month this weekend.
Up front, the main issues are on the left flank. The regular Green sustained a season-ending injury not long ago. His replacement Appiah got hurt in the last match. If he is out might change the formation and operate with 2 strikers.
Predicted Lineup:
Johansson (GK), Lembikisa, Peltier, Morrison, Bramall, Rathbone, Odoffin, Tiehi, Cafu, Hugill & Onyedinma
QPR
QPR put up a good fight at home against leaders Leicester but still lost. Crucial for the defeat was the red card for Dozzell when the result was 1-1. After the game ended coach Ainsworth was sacked. This was a direct reaction to the awful 9-game winless run (D2 L7).
QPR already found a new manager. Coming from Hammarby in Sweden Marti Cifuentes is an unproven head coach that will make his debut this weekend.
Key midfielder Dozzell misses the game suspended. There is a quartet of players deemed doubtful too but they all train and might be involved even if only off the bench.
Predicted Lineup:
Begovic (GK), Kakay, Cook, Dunne, Paal, Smyth, Colback, Field, Willock, Dykes & Chair
Starting Lineups
The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.
Rotherham
QPR
Player to Watch: Jordan Hugill
Rotherham's main striker Jordan Hugill scored all of his 3 goals so far on home turf. Hugill is the main target-man for the Millers and especially in home matches he gets targets with plenty of crosses.
If Rotherham are to score a goal in the coming match Hugill is the most likely player to be involved so he is a player worth watching out for.
