Leeds captain Liam Cooper and playmaker Pablo Hernandez could start after recovering from injury.

Centre-back Cooper returned off the bench last weekend, but Patrick Bamford (ankle), Ezgjan Alioski (hip) and Barry Douglas (knee) are all doubts.

QPR could recall seven-goal striker Jordan Hugill after he completed a one-match suspension for five bookings.

Defender Yoann Barbet and midfielder Matt Smith are still carrying knocks and remain doubtful.

Match facts:

Leeds have won their past two home league matches against QPR, winning 2-0 in May 2018 and 2-1 in December 2018.

QPR won two of their past three games against Leeds in all competitions in 2018-19, beating the Whites in the FA Cup in January and the Championship in February.

Leeds' home games have produced just eight goals scored in the Championship this season, fewer than any other side (5 for, 3 against).

Only Leeds and West Brom (14 points) have won more away points in the Championship this season than QPR (12 points).

Leeds' past four home league wins have all been 1-0 wins - prior to this, only four of their previous 25 home league wins had been 1-0 victories.

QPR's Ebere Eze has been involved in 10 Championship goals this season (6 goals, 4 assists) - one more than in his previous two seasons combined (6 goals, 3 assists).

2 - 0.

MOT (to the boozer I go!!!!!!!!!)

[Jezleeds]

I'm very uncomfortable with this 2 goal lead with a few minutes to go I have to say.

I got all anxious about not feeling stressed.

Only 48% possession today and a great win.

Hopefully the start of a turnaround - hopefully also the injured players can come back quickly - need Eddie to finish some of these chances. Great to see Pablo back.

[CalverleyBoy]

Good results, we just need PNE to slip up and WBA = Scumchester lost as well so not a bad Saturday

[norfolk white]

Well done boys, gutted that Eddie was injured as thought he might/hoped he might have started today, been out all day but kept check on scores, many teams keep doing us favours, Barnsley last night especially, good to see Roberts and Harrison on the score sheet, spread the goals around boys.

[Jezleeds]

Just read that Patrick Bamford hasn't scored since August 24th.

Jesus!

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Just read that Patrick Bamford hasn't scored since August 24th.

Jesus!

It gets worse if you look at how many chances he has had and how few actually hit the target

[LeedsFTW]

Just read that Patrick Bamford hasn't scored since August 24th.

Jesus!

Think Bamford is taking one for the team with a lot of criticism for lack of goals. Genuinely think he might benefit from a couple of games starting from the bench.

If Pablo comes back soon, dont see any reason why Robert's or Eddie could not start up top and take Bamford out of the limelight for a short break.

You forgot to add August 24th 2015.

Klich did miss a sitter he would have buried last season

Yeah same BBC article said we are in the bottom half of the table for goals scored too.....also see we don't have a player in the top 25 scorers currently in the division.

Mitrovic has 11 and Leeds United have 19.

But we're top, so f uck it. It'll come i guess.

[george_kaplan]

Yeah fnckmmmm...the bbc, they wont give us a inch at the best of times, just pick on the negatives. Another clean sheet. If we have trouble scoring then make sure we don’t get scored upon, will we see a regular goal scorer? Sigh. At the mo we are top of a very tight pile :) very interesting these non goal scoring teams huh!!!

[Rev72]

When we are on it we look like we could give someone a real rodgering..can you imagine this team with a prolific goal scorer..frightening.

[spaldy]

Davis looked very useful out there.

Too true George, Too much emphasis on scoring at the minute and rightly so, but just look at our goals conceded compared to the rest, brilliant, god we would be well clear even at this early stage if we could finish, i am sure it will come,
