Bottom-ranked Baggies seek home comfort as they play host to Liverpool on Sunday.
Harry Redknapp’s Queens Park Rangers will lock horns with Liverpool, when the two sides meet in a Premier League match at the Loftus Road Stadium on Sunday.
The Reds will be bruised after their disappointing 3-1 loss at the hands of Stoke City on Boxing Day, which further widened the gap between them and their top-four rivals. However, Brendan Rodgers’ warriors will be looking to make the most of the beleaguered
confidence of the home team, who have thus far mustered just a single win in their 19 league matches.
QPR, though, like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809, will be desperate to claim all three points. Pitted at the bottom of the table, a win over the 18 times league champions will surely lift the downbeat morale of the squad, and could kick start a great escape for the London-based
club.
Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314
Not too many changes are expected on the part of Redknapp, who is likely to stick with the same unit over the weekend.
However, Julio Cesar could start ahead of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robert-c31222 Green, who had a poor game against West Bromwich Albion.
Faurlin, Shaun Wright-Phillips and Jamie Mackie will form the midfield in the absence of the injured http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Park-Ji-Sung-c29147 and Kieron Dyer.
With striker Bobby http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zamora-c40983 still recovering from a hip injury, Djibril Cisse and Adel Taarabt could be assigned with attacking duties.
Defence is expected to remain unaltered.
Expected Starting line-up:

Results of last five league matches:

The Reds boss is likely to do a bit of a tinkering to the side which lost to Stoke City on Wednesday.
Joe Allen could start ahead of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Agger-c9884 and Martin Skrtel combo at the back, with Enrique involving himself more on the left flank.
Suso could make way for Raheem Sterling in the starting line-up, who could pair up with Luis Suarez and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Stewart-Downing-c34221 in the frontline.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-Borini-c13163 are yet to make a return from injuries.
Expected Starting Line-ups:
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lucas-c22528, Leiva, Stewart Downing, Raheem Sterling, Luis Suarez.

Prediction
Queens Park Rangers 1 : 2 Liverpool
The Reds are likely to dominate large chunks of the fixture, enjoying most of the possession. However, their defence has appeared to be a fragile recently, and could leak a goal on Sunday. But having said that, it is the writer’s opinion that the visiting
team will be able to get the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 done at the end.
