    Neil Warnock's QPR are set to face last season's Europa League finalists SC Braga during their tour of Italy on Saturday 30th July - kick-off 8pm (local time).

    In a slight alteration from their fixture with Atalanta, which was scheduled to take place on the same date, Rangers will now compete in a three-team mini-tournament for the 'Trofeo Bortolotti' - a highly-regarded competition which marks the end of Atalanta's pre-season campaign each year.

    Each match will last for 45 minutes and the R's will face Braga in the first fixture of the tournament, before Atalanta will firstly play the losers, and then the victors of that clash for the Trofeo Bortolotti.

    Do Atalanta play themselves in game 3 if they win game 2? Should be an interesting watch :(
