Leeds face QPR on tomorrow desperately trying to get their season back on track. The last two games have seen an upturn in performance, and boss Kevin Blackwell will be looking to transfer that into their home form. Blackwell is likely to name an unchanged line up for the third successive game, as there are no new injury worries. Jamie McMaster may come into the reckoning after recovering from concussion, and he could squeeze onto the bench. McMaster was the best Leeds performer in their midweek reserve loss to Man City, and is looking to breakthrough after a loan spell at Swindon. Striker Michael Ricketts will also be hoping for a recall after failing to make the bench for the last two games, but the former Middlesborough player is struggling to recapture the form he showed at Bolton which won him an England cap. QPR are the surprise package of the Championship, with many expecting the Londoners to struggle. Nothing could be further from the truth though, and the hoops have been in fine form this season. Strikers Gallen and Furlong will provide a stiff test for our centre back pairing of Carlisle and Butler, who will have to cope with their physical presence. Leeds need a win to edge them into a mid table position, whilst QPR will be looking for a win that would keep them on course for a play off place at the end of the season.
