Rangers face cup giantkillers

9:40am Saturday 15th November 2008 in Sport By Simon Mail

Queens Park Rangers take on Carling Cup heroes Burnley at Loftus Road this afternoon.

The visitors pulled of a major shock on Wednesday night after knocking Chelsea out of the cup on penalties at Stamford Bridge. Owen Coyle's side have also made an impact in the Championship and currently sit in fifth position, one point above the R's.

Rangers will be looking for their third league win under caretaker manager Gareth Ainsworth. They have won both games at home under the 35-year-old without conceding a goal.

QPR will be without Akos Buzsaky after the Hungarian international was ruled out for the rest of the season with an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

Ainsworth said: "I'm devastated we've lost him, but all we can do is offer him support and wish him all the best with his recovery."
