QPR host Middlesbrough at The Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium in the EFL Championship on Wednesday, with both sides having similar seasons so far.
QPR are currently 4th in the table, with a win possible taking them into second. Mark Warburton's side lost 2-0 against Peterborough last time out and will be looking to bounce back with a win against Boro on Wednesday.
Middlesbrough, on the other hand, are 7th in the table, six points behind their opponents. Chris Wilder's side will be going into the game off the back of knocking Manchester United out of the FA Cup. They will hope to carry that momentum into the game against QPR on Wednesday.
