History of the Queens Park Rangers v Bournemouth fixture

QPR prepare to entertain Bournemouth at Loftus Road on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rangers are clearly on top, having won 20 and lost only 7 of the 34 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Loftus Road was just last season, in January 2002, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division Two match.
