QPR v Preston: Perch in for Hall

jamesperch

QPR make one change to side for the game at Loftus Road, with James Perch replacing Grant Hall.

Hall is suspended after being sent off during the midweek defeat at Barnsley, so Perch comes in at right-back with Nedum Onuoha moving into the centre of the defence.

There is a place on the Rangers bench for teenager Chris Paul, who joined the club this summer.

Paul, 18, was signed after being released by Tottenham and is primarily a midfielder but can also play at right-back.

Preston, meanwhile, have Paul Huntington on their bench. The defender had been struggling with an abdominal strain.

QPR: Smithies; Perch, Onuoha, Caulker, Bidwell; Henry, Luongo; Cousins, Chery, Ngbakoto, Polter.
Subs: Ingram, Shodipo, Grego-Cox, Kakay, Paul, Washington, El Khayati.

Preston: Lindegaard, Humphrey, Clarke, Wright, Cunningham, Spurr, Welsh, Gallagher, Johnson, Robinson, Beckford.
Subs: Maxwell, Huntington, Browne, Pringle, Doyle, Hugill, Makienok.
