Leeds United will travel to Loftus Road to face Queens Park Rangers in the Championship clash on Saturday.

The Whites are just five points outside the top six, ahead of the trip to West London. After going through a torrid spell in October and November, it seems that Leeds are slowly finding their way back.

They are heading into this match on the back of a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa, and should face this fixture will confidence.

QPR are going through a poor run of form, having failed to win their last five games in the Championship. Ian Holloway’s side are 18th in the Championship, but they are still a formidable side to play at home.

Ahead of the match, Leeds United manager Thomas Christiansen has pointed out two QPR players – Matt Smith and Conor Washington – who he considers to be a potential threat for the side.

Jamie Mackie won’t play this match through suspension, and Smith could play a key role. Holloway has used him as a substitute for most of the season, but he is still Rangers’ leading goalscorer with five goals.

“I believe up front they have Washington, they have Smith. What I say to my players is we have to look at ourselves,” said Christiansen, as quoted by Leeds Live.
