Q.P.R. pack their bags to visit Blackpool at Bloomfield Road on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve on a record of draws against their opponents.

The previous match played between the two at Bloomfield Road was more than three years back, in January 2004, with Q.P.R. inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Seasiders in a League Division Two match.
