A struggling Queens ParkRangers side will lock horns with 10th-placed Watford in an intriguing EFL Championship clash at the Loftus Road.
The home side have just five wins this season in 26 games which sees them placed just three points above the foot of the table. With four defeats and one draw in their last five games, QPR have struggled significantly this season and will need a miracle to save their campaign.
Watford are currently seeded in the top half of the table with 36 points from their 26 games. The Hornets defeated Chesterfield 2-1 to dump them out of the FA Cup and qualify for the next round. A win against QPR will help them leapfrog three teams above them.
