They have momentum, but consistency remains a question mark. Loftus Road has historically been a tricky venue for visiting sides, and the Hoops will rely on home support to keep their revival going.

Stoke have been one of the Championship’s early pacesetters, sitting just behind leaders Middlesbrough after four wins from five matches. Bosun Lawal’s early strike secured a 1-0 win against Birmingham last weekend, further underlining the Potters’ efficiency.
They also boast a perfect away record so far this campaign, winning both matches on the road. Robins’ men arrive in London full of confidence and will back themselves to extend their strong run.
