  • Match Thread | FA Cup 4th RD Replay | QPR 2 Portsmouth 0

    Queens Park Rangers have been handed a triple injury boost ahead of tonight's FA Cup fourth round replay against Portsmouth.

    Tomer Hemed returns to the Hoops squad for the clash at Loftus Road, while Geoff Cameron and Angel Rangel are both closing in on a return.

    The duo, however, will not be ready for the Pompey clash.

    If QPR can overcome the challenge of the League One side, they will secure a place in the fifth round for the first time in 22 years - as well as having a home tie to Premier League side Watford to look forward.

    Speaking ahead of the game, Steve McClaren struggled to hide his enthusiasm for the challenge ahead.

    He said: "I like the buzz that has been created and that is why I put great significance on the first game.

    “We had to get a result and make sure we got in the hat.

    “We did that and that has given the winners Watford at home which is an extra incentive to play for. We’ve none more so than to win.

    “We want to go through in the Cup. As much for the supporters than anything, it’s going to be a great atmosphere with plenty of fans.

    “It’s again what I called before the first match, a real cup tie and one which will test our players to the end.

                  A minute's silence will be held in memory of Brazier 42 and academy analyst Antony Pallett, who died on Sunday aged 31, before QPR's FA Cup fourth-round replay against Portsmouth at Loftus Road on Tuesday.
                  RIP

                        As a manager in all competitions, QPR boss Steve McClaren has faced Portsmouth more often than any other side without winning (P7 W0 D4 L3).

                          • QPR are unbeaten in their last 13 home games against Portsmouth in all competitions (W9 D4) since a 0-1 loss in the third tier in September 1961.
                          • Six of the last eight meetings between Portsmouth and QPR in all competitions have ended as draws, with the other two QPR victories.

                            Glad to see Grant Hall getting a game. Not so sure about Smith up top from the start!

                              Wells & Smith, that's a great combo up front. I feel confident Smith will score. Hemed on the bench is also great news.
