QPR predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Begovic (GK) — Dunne, Cook, Clarke-Salter, Paal — Field, Colback — Willock, Andersen, Chair — Dykes.

QPR will be confident they have done just enough to dodge any further relegation danger so the onus is on Leeds to secure a vital win on the road in the capital.
Both teams have won just once in their last four league outings, but victory is crucial for Leeds, and the firepower of Crysencio Summerville and Patrick Bamford should tip the balance in their favour.
Prediction: Leeds 1-0 QPR
