Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s side head into the clash in the wake of a convincing win over promotion-chasing Derby County on Tuesday evening. Goals in each half from Tjaronn Chery and Gabriele Angella won it for the R’s, on a night when Rangers out-thought, out-fought and out-foxed the Rams. Brentford, meanwhile, were without a midweek fixture owing to Hull City’s FA Cup fifth round replay against Arsenal on Tuesday night. Despite not playing, Dean Smith’s side dropped two places in the table to 17th. Their form heading in to Saturday’s derby is indifferent to say the least, with just two wins from their last 11 Championship fixtures – a run of form which has seen the Bees collect seven points from a possible 33. Grant Hall remains sidelined with an ankle injury, but Massimo Luongo could return to the matchday squad after missing Tuesday’s win with a minor foot injury. Brentford midfielder Alan McCormack is in line to return to the Bees squad following a two month injury lay-off. please log in to view this image Possible Starting Xl's please log in to view this image please log in to view this image MATCH ODDS QPR win: 11/8 Draw: 12/5 Brentford win: 19/10 LAST TIME OUT Brentford 1, QPR 0 – Sky Bet Championship – Friday 30th October 2015 Scorer: Brentford – Djuricin HEAD TO HEAD QPR wins: 23 Draws: 21 Brentford wins: 24 MATCH OFFICIALS Referee: F Graham Assistant Referees: N Hair & G Stretton Fourth Official: D Blunden please log in to view this image please log in to view this image QPR Ladies Striker Lauren May please log in to view this image

Our warrior Clint - patch him up and send him out. please log in to view this image Clint Hill played the full 90 minutes of Tuesday's 2-0 win over Derby despite carrying a hamstring problem. TEAM NEWS QPR are set to patch up defender Clint Hill (hamstring) for the west London derby against Brentford. Hill was recalled after Grant Hall suffered a foot injury last weekend which is set to keep him out for a few weeks. Brentford fear full-back Maxime Colin (groin) could be out for the rest of the season. Midfielder Alan McCormack is fit (calf) and striker Scott Hogan is on his way back to fitness (cruciate ligament). MATCH FACTS QPR are unbeaten in four home league games against rivals Brentford (W2 D2), keeping a clean sheet in three of those contests. However, it is the first meeting at Loftus Road since November 2003. Brentford have scored just four goals in their last eight games against QPR in league competition and never more than once in this run. After wins over Birmingham and Derby in their previous two league games at Loftus Road, the Hoops are aiming to win three on the bounce for the first time since December 2014. Bees' winger Alan Judge has assisted nine goals this season, the joint-highest in the division. Tjaronn Chery has scored in each of the last three games at Loftus Road, contributing three goals. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/35733017
Thanks 9s. If we play anything like Tuesday night, this should be a comfortable win. But then again this is QPR ???? Would hope Mass comes straight back in, replacing Henry. Ale, Mass and Chery when they are all firing should be an exciting midfield combination.
Mass and Chery great....but who isvgoibg to win them the ball...who is going to break down Brentford attacks .....we need Henry or Ale or Toszer
It will be fantastic. Sorry, I forgot - we haven't won a Cup game since I was a lad, won a London derby since my son was a lad and beaten a team battling against relegation for quite a while now. I'm keeping both hooves firmly planted on the ground for this one.
Never really seen Brentford as a rival but we seem to be a big deal to them. I expect there'll be the odd ruckus on South Africa Road.
Brentford are not our rivals Ffs there nobody same as foolam , fecking rivals , Darby , grudge match !? I've herd a few today . Brentford are a poor mans foolam and that is all
