Despite the poor results, Marti Cifuentes&#8217; men are still in the hunt for a top-six place.<\/p>\n<p>You have to go back to 2015 for the last time the Super Hoops played <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/premier-league-barclays-era-deep-dive\/\">Premier League<\/a> football. A victory under the lights on Friday will reignite the hopes that they can return to the big time.<\/p>\n<p>Rangers have certainly endured a topsy-turvy campaign so far. After an abysmal start, Cifuentes has led his troops up the EFL Championship table. However, there&#8217;s still plenty of work to be done.<\/p>\n<p>On home soil this season, the West Londoners have been almost perfectly average. 22 goals have been scored with the same number shipped. They have won six times and drawn and lost on five occasions.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Thanks for all your support last night \ud83d\ude4f<\/p>\n<p>See you R&#39;s back home on Friday \ud83c\udfe0 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6xHLaRCrUX\">pic.twitter.com\/6xHLaRCrUX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; QPR FC (@QPR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/QPR\/status\/1889584475048387042?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 12, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Derby Doomed For The Drop?<\/h3>\n<p>Going into Friday&#8217;s clash, Derby can boast just two wins from their last 17 games in all competitions. Paul Warne was recently let go and Blackburn boss John Eustace was appointed as his replacement on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams actually had a fine start to the EFL Championship season. After 16 games, the club was perched in mid-table having won five and drawing five.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, it really has been doom and gloom at Pride Park. As it stands, the club are just above the relegation places via goal difference. However, confidence can be taken going into the clash at Loftus Road.<\/p>\n<p>In the reverse fixture, Curtis Nelson and Marcus Harness netted in a comfortable 2-0 home win. On Tuesday, a clean sheet was kept in the 0-0 draw with Oxford.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of Friday&#8217;s clash, the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/betting-sites\/football\/\">football betting sites<\/a> in the UK make QPR the 13\/10 match favourites. Derby can be backed at 49\/20 with the draw 5\/2.<\/p>\n<h2>QPR Vs Derby Team News<\/h2>\n<p>Jake Clarke-Salter, Karamoko Dembele, Lucas Andersen and Zan Celar will all be absent for <strong>QPR<\/strong>. The quartet are all nearing first-team returns.<\/p>\n<p>Another injury concern is Paul Smyth. The Northern Irish winger was subbed off on the 70th minute against Coventry. Yang Min-Hyeok is a likely replacement.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Frey is expected to lead the line once again up top. The burley striker netted the opener in the last home game against Blackburn.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Derby<\/strong> will be without Corey Blackett-Taylor, Curtis Nelson and Dajaune Brown. The trio are still a way off a return to the starting XI.<\/p>\n<p>Caretaker boss Matt Hamshaw has somewhat steadied the ship and he&#8217;ll now hand over the reins to John Eustace. Interestingly, the 45-year-old was the assistant manager at Loftus Road between 2018-2022.<\/p>\n<p>Eustace is likely to start with an almost identical starting lineup to the one that drew with Oxford last time out.
