QPR vs Liverpool Match Preview

Liverpool travel to Loftus road this sunday with the hopes of bouncing back off the humiliation 3-1 loss to Stoke City on boxing day.Both teams see this fixture as a must win & both will see this one as a fixture they can both win.Last season this fixture ended 3-2 after Qpr staged a comeback in a somewhat freaky match that saw Qpr score 3 goals in the last 14minutes of the game.

QPR have been unbelievably poor this season & it's worse considering the squad they have.They have only won 1 match thus far,a record that if continued would make them the worst team in the premier league since Derby county.They currently have the same number of points as Reading and 3pts here would be a massive boost for Harry.Qpr would need to be at their best though as liverpool have the potential ability to outplay them in every area.Andy Johnson,Bobby Zamora,Jose Bosingwa, Julio Cesar and captain Park Ji-Sung are also doubts for Sunday's clash through injury.

Liverpool on the other hand have been too inconsistent this season & a loss here would mean Brendan Rogders would have amassed the same number of points as Roy Hogson.Suarez has been declares fit to play which is a massive boost seeing that he's liverpools most important player.A win for liverpool will depend heavily on how good Suarez and Gerrard will be that night.

Likely line ups

Qpr - Green Fabio, Ferdinand, Hill, Traore, Wright-Phillips, Faurlin, Mbia, Taarabt, Cisse, Mackie

Liverpool-Reina Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique, Lucas, Gerrard, Allen, Downing, Suarez, Sterling

My Prediction

Qpr 1-3 Liverpool

Qpr have been very poor this season and so has liverpool,but i just can't see Qpr win this one.One thing thats for sure is that Liverpool won't get a clean sheet in this fixture as they have been poor at the back..perhaps a Taarabt or Cisse goal.
