    Ian Holloway predicts QPR will lose to Rotherham this weekend.

    QPR take on a resurgent Rotherham United this weekend and pundit Ian Holloway has told SkySports he believes the west London side will taste defeat.
    The R's came into the season as promotion hopefuls while Rotherham's target is and remains to avoid relegation.
    Both teams have changed managers, with QPR swapping Chris Ramsey for Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, and Rotherham bringing in Neil Redfearn after Steve Evans' departure.
    QPR have disappointed this season, are in 17th place, now just three above Rotherham - although seven points separate the two teams.
    Former Blackpool and Millwall boss Ian Holloway told SkySports that he predicts a 1-0 win for the Millers, adding: "All the changes at QPR haven't helped matters this season.
    "There are too many similar players in the QPR midfield. A lot of players want to go forward but switch off without the ball. I think it'll get worse before it gets better for Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink - the pressure is already on him.
    "Rotherham are flying having won the last three home games without conceding. Neil Redfearn's team never stop running and never stop trying. They will be buoyant."
    QPR have not won any of their last seven games in the division, drawing five and losing two, and their chances of winning promotion this season appear to be evaporating, already 13 points off a play-off spot.
    They cannot afford to lose more ground, and this means they must avoid defeat at Rotherham, who are now three points above the relegation zone.

    Amazingly, a lot of pundits still regard us as a big fish in the Championship 'pond', they obviously don't watch all our games, a Rotherham win would be no surprise...

    Ian Hollowhead should ask why he couldn't beat a 9 men Luton team or why he couldn't get us up automatically the year we lost at Cardiff with the best team. And if he really wants a shock just say Vauxhall Motors.

    Rotherham had a 5 in 14 chance according to the odds and we had a 5 in 13 so it would have been a pretty crap shock
