Carabao Cup First Round
QPR VS Peterborough United
Loftus Road
Tuesday 14th August 2018
7.45pm
​

QPR are set to host Peterborough United in round one of the 2018/19 Carabao Cup competition.

Following the regionalised first-round draw in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam this morning, Rangers will welcome Steve Evans' League One Posh to Loftus Road on the week commencing Monday 13th August 2018.

It’s worth noting that a rule change will see no extra time in all matches bar the final if necessary in the Carabao Cup this season.

Instead, ties ending in a draw after 90 minutes, up to and including the semi-finals, will go straight to penalties.

Furthermore, penalty shoot-outs will revert back to the ABAB format, after ABBA was trialled last term.

Not much history to be found on this fixture, and no exciting videos to be found for this fixture either I'm afraid. My sincere apologies. Hope those who are going enjoy the game and we don't have our dream of a cup run dashed at the first hurdle, as has been so often the way! I'll post the full match preview when it is on the official site.

History;
Played 10
QPR wins 4
Peterborough wins 3
Drawn 3

 

Home tie against a lower division side with a pedigree of giant-killing, no-brainer here methinks...

 

Play our best team and get a win and build ......

 

drop one of the dream 3 midfield though fro Manning (see other thread) and maybe swap keepers and Lynch

an all in one QPR kit...that's where we're going wrong...

 

Come on UR"'s.

 

Normally the cup is a chance to play some youngsters but as that's now the 1st team who are going to play.

 

You can tell thats a Reading kit ...................... he's got no balls.

Anyway, hopefully, we can snag our first win and get some momentum going forward.

 

under 21 team

 

No extra time? Straight to penalties?

So any team with the lead will practice time wasting to good effect.

 

Will probably go. Not working far away these days.

I’d really like us to rest ze German ahead of West Brom but not sure we have anyone who can come in.

 

May as well give Posh the tie right now.

 

Very nice car

 

Can you buy this in the Club Shop?

 

Is it really that bad? I'm glad I am away at the moment.

 

I would play Manning and Pawel for this one.

However, it would be good to get a moral boosting win on the board and not play an U18 team.

 

You wouldn’t mind riding it for a few minutes then?

 

No complaints at all. Would love to!

A very nice car!

 

Trying not to be negative but when we play lower opposition and get knocked out of the cup this time of year the players coming in look like they have never seen each other before yet alone played together but as thats how we played for the most part on Saturday does not bode well!!!
