Q.P.R. travel to take on Burnley at Turf Moor on Tuesday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having taken no points from 8 of the 11 contests.

The last time the two teams met at Burnley was just over four years ago, in March 2001, the Clarets carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Burnley are not in the best of form at home, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats in their last six. A generous 6 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

The away form of Q.P.R. however, is much more impressive, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 4 have been let in at the wrong end.

Burnley see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola Championship, showing a record of 53 points from their 42 games played so far, Q.P.R.'s 58 points from 42 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.
