QPR have gone through a mixed bag of late, winning two and losing two of their last four games. However, QPR will go into this weekend’s fixture with plenty of optimism having won both of their last two home fixtures. The R’s will look to continue in the same vein this weekend by making it three home wins on the bounce.
Last week saw Bobby Zamora come on as a second half substitute for the Rs in the absence of suspended front man and top scorer Charlie Austin. The EA SPORTS Player Performance Index can reveal that Zamora needed only 31 minutes to score on Monday night with his only attempt on goal, whilst completing 71.4% of his seven passes.

In the middle of the park, Leroy Fer continues to impress in his debut for the Loftus Road outfit. The EA SPORTS Player Performance Index demonstrates that he has not only scored and set up two goals apiece but also won 71.4% of his 42 tackles and racked up 17 interceptions. He will look to continue his all-round good work to deliver another match winning performance.
At the back, Richard Dunne has been a rock all season for the West Londoners, as illustrated by the EA SPORTS Player Performance Index. The Republic of Ireland international centre back has won 86.7% of his 30 tackles, making 98 clearances and amassing 15 interceptions. He will be key to the R’s keeping their second clean sheet in three matches and gaining the three points required to get Rangers out of the relegation zone pre-Christmas.
Opponents West Brom will be looking for their second victory in a row after their 1-0 win over city rivals Aston Villa in their last outing. Another win this weekend could see them leapfrog Villa and they will come into the match with confidence.
Goalkeeper Ben Foster has been in fantastic form so far this season, as shown by the EA SPORTS Player Performance Index.

He will look to keep up the good work to help deliver six points from six in their last two matches.

Gardner has covered a squad best 163.8km so far this season. He has also won 73.9% of his 69 tackles so far this season, and his hard work will be needed to give West Brom the desired three points.
Up top, Saido Berahino has been West Brom’s ever present threat this season, as demonstrated by the EA SPORTS Player Performance Index. Berahino has netted seven times, converting 25% of his 28 shots so far this season. Having hit a top speed of 33.7km/h, Berahino will look to use his pace to get in behind the R’s backline.
