By Victor Martins, FootballPredictions.NET, 12:25 24/04/2026

QPR host visiting opposition side Derby County at MATRADE Loftus Road Stadium in their Campeonato meeting on Saturday, and our team has the latest predicted line ups and news on player availability.

QPR will be hoping to return to winning ways here after the 1-2 Campeonato loss in their previous game against el Swansea City. We think that The R's could opt for a 4-4-2 formation for this game, beginning the first half with Joe Walsh, Kealey Adamson, Steve Cook, Ronnie Edwards, R. Norrington-Davies, Paul Smyth, Kieran Morgan, Isaac Hayden, Harvey Vale, Rayan Kolli y Rumarn Burrell.

Jake Clarke-Salter, Ziyad Larkeche y Justin Obikwu aren’t available for QPR manager Julien Stéphan.

How QPR could look to play Derby County

Since tasting defeat last time out to el Norwich City in Campeonato competition, Derby County will be hoping to turn things around here. There’s a good chance that The Rams could decide to make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup with a starting lineup of J. W. Zetterström, Joe Ward, Sondre Langås, Matt Clarke, Craig Forsyth, Lewis Travis, David Ozoh, Ben Brereton Díaz, Samuel Szmodics, Jaydon Banel y Carlton Morris.

Derby manager John Eustace has multiple availability issues to deal with. Callum Elder (Broken toe), Rhian Brewster (Knee surgery), Bobby Clark (Hamstring injury) and Patrick Agyemang (Achilles tendon rupture) are those who can’t be considered.
