Half-time: Watford 0 QPR 0

By

Niko Kranjcar, playing as a lone striker, fired inches wide of the target for QPR in the first half at Vicarage Road.

With Charlie Austin out with a hamstring injury, Kranjcar was handed an unfamiliar role while Yossi Benayoun was given a starting place in midfield.

The Croatian sent another effort wide and an early attempt well over the bar as Rangers had most of the possession.

At the other end, Richard Dunne produced a superb last-ditch tackle to deny Diego Fabbrini as the Watford forward burst into the box.

And keeper R’s keeper Rob Green was able to gather Sean Murray’s deflected shot.

QPR: Green, Simpson, Onuoha, Dunne, Assou-Ekotto, Barton, Carroll, Benayoun, Phillips, Hoilett, Kranjcar.
Subs: Murphy; Traore, Johnson, Henry, Zamora, O’Neil, Sendles-White.
