QPR are now 4 games without a win but somehow clinging on to a Top 6 position.

In our final match before a 4 week break we have a very tough trip to Coventry.

Coventry have won their last 3 without conceding and have 8 clean sheets in their last 11 games.

Can we bounce back?

How do you expect the R's to line up?

In this weeks QPR Preview Show daveb and I discussed the R's recent demise and looked ahead to the clash with Coventry, we hope you enjoy it.

I remain positive that we can get something from this match but our finishing needs to be better.

Whilst the defeats to WBA and Huddersfield were disappointing we have to remember that both those clubs were still receiving Parachute payments at the end of last season and their current league positions doesn't reflect the quality of players they have in their teams.

The reality of this league is that their isn't a lot between the top and bottom teams.

Paal, Balogun and Iroegbunam all miss out altogether.

Looks like JCS at left back or if we are playing a back 3 perhaps Richards at wing back, as he makes his first start.

We start:

Dieng
Laird Dickie Dunne JCS
Dozzell Field Richards
Willock Dykes Chair

Bench looks particularly weak today overall, but Armstrong does at least make the bench.

Missing those 3 key players may be the difference between winning or not! It says a lot that JCS is considered ahead of Hamalainen when Paal is unavailable...

Dieng really needs to be more assertive when balls come into his area, and Willock needs to get sharper as gave away the ball when he really should not have!

Missed by first player and then 2 of ours, but a second player makes no mistake. Really odd goal.

Slightly unlucky with the goal but Laird should either concede a corner or Row Z it.
JCS doesn't look comfortable at all.
Richards has given it away umpteen times.
We look miles off the pace. Another example of a team playing with verve and energy and high press and we just look bereft of ideas to counter it.

All the clubs look at the videos and reckon they know now how to contain QPR....

Agree about Richards. He is neither exerting himself or adding value. He is a left-footed player and should be placing himself in front of JCS to assist him. Instead, he drifts....

Have QPR played badly? Not really. Coventry have just looked more threatening in their breaks. Sloppy play by us prevents a set of decent passes becoming a shot on goal. In midfield we have Dozzell and Richards achieving too little, with Richards seeming to always be in the way when Willock or Laird or Field is there. What does he bring to the team? I hope he improves second half and scores but somehow, I doubt it!

So who can come off the bench and change things? Armstrong for Willock? Adomah for Richards?

We have been second best.

Dykes is so isolated. Every time the ball comes in it has to be so accurate otherwise we have no chance.

We've had a few moments from set pieces but their goalkeeper has not had anything to do.

Laird is making the wrong choice every time he gets forward.

Dozzell needs to do more, whilst Richards simply cannot pass.
