History of the Queens Park Rangers v Doncaster Rovers fixture

Q.P.R. prepare to entertain Doncaster Rovers at Loftus Road on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rangers are clearly on top, beating their opponents 3 times from 5 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Loftus Road was just last season, in August 2008, with Q.P.R. running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Queens Park Rangers's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Rangers have scored 7, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Doncaster Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. These low-scoring games have seen just 4 goals scored and conceded.

Q.P.R. are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola Championship having mustered a points tally of 34 from their 30 matches played. Doncaster Rvs.'s 40 points from 30 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
