Marco Silva will recall centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo following a calamitous defensive display against Coventry. Teenage star Fabio Carvalho has recovered from a toe injury and could return to the starting XI for this London derby. Mark Warburton could recall centre-back Jordy de Wijs this weekend with Jimmy Dunne the man most likely to drop out of the back three. Lyndon Dykes scored in both of Scotland's World Cup qualifiers, but could be rested here after a physically demanding international break.
Fulham went into the season as title favourites, but the Cottagers are enduring a tricky spell after an initially impressive start to the season. That drop in form came to a crescendo prior to the international break when Marco Silva's men were beaten 4-1 on the road by high-flying Coventry. QPR demonstrated their spirit in their last league outing as they fought from behind to beat a struggling Preston side 3-2 in London. Back-to-back wins have propelled Rangers into the top six as they travel to take on the side directly above them in the table. 2:2
Fulham have seen over 2.5 goals in their last 6 home matches against QPR in all competitions. There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 8 of QPR's last 10 away games (Championship). Fulham have scored at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 7 home matches against QPR in all competitions. QPR have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 away matches (Championship). There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Fulham's last 3 home games (Championship). Fulham are undefeated in their last 6 matches against QPR in all competitions.
With Fulham having more players away on international duty, it remains to be seen whether their energy levels will be high enough to cope with a London derby. Nevertheless, they possess extra quality at both ends of the pitch, and we are backing a narrow triumph for the Cottagers.
