QPR v Burnley: Austin a sub and Henry recalled

Charlie Austin is among the QPR substitutes for new manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s first match in charge.

Austin has been nursing a calf injury and Rangers again start without a recognised striker, although Jay Emmanuel-Thomas is included on the bench having been overlooked during Neil Warnock’s time in interim charge.

Hasselbaink has restored Karl Henry to starting line-up. The midfielder replaces youngster Michael Petrasso.

Joey Barton starts for Burnley – his first appearance at Loftus Road since leaving Rangers during the summer.

QPR: Green, Perch, Onuoha, Hall, Konchesky, Hoilett, Sandro, Faurlin, Henry, Fer, Phillips.
Subs: Smithies, Chery, Luongo, Angella, Tozser, Emmanuel-Thomas, Austin.
