Swansea v QPR (Tuesday, 1700 GMT)
QPR are on an absolutely awful run and you can see why they are already making noises about signings in January, because they look like they need them.
It is too easy to make chances against Rangers, and they don't score enough goals, which is not a great combination. I'm just surprised their manager Neil Warnock has not sounded off about some of their performances on TV yet, although he's probably already done so in the dressing room.
Swansea look very comfortable and they have not had to change their playing style since being promoted. Also, they have not made massive changes to their personnel, and instead have just bought one or two players here and there.
They know their style of play works in the top flight and they know they don't concede many goals. They have been very strong at home and I fancy them to continue that sort of form here.
Prediction: Swansea City 2-0 Queens Park Rangers
