Leeds United host Marti Cifuentes’ injury-hit Queens Park Rangers at Elland Road this afternoon as Daniel Farke’s men look to put midweek defeat by Millwall behind them.

United lost for the first time in nine matches on Wednesday night but a return to familiar territory at Elland Road is likely to yield a response from Farke’s side.

Leeds have been impressive at home this season, despite early season disappointments against Portsmouth, Burnley and Middlesbrough, latterly in the Carabao Cup.

QPR arrive in West Yorkshire without several of their preferred starters and sit 23rd in the Championship table after 14 matches.

Cifuentes’ outfit beat Leeds comprehensively at Loftus Road just over six months ago as United’s automatic promotion bid ground to a halt. The last time these two met at Elland Road, Leeds were the victors by a 1-0 scoreline.

Leeds will be without left-back Junior Firpo, however, who serves the first game of a three-match suspension, brought about retrospectively for violent conduct during the defeat to Millwall on Wednesday night.

Today’s game is subject to the United Kingdom’s Saturday afternoon broadcast blackout and will only be shown live in foreign territories.

FT. Leeds United 2-0 Queens Park Rangers.

Job done.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLL PIROE 2-0

90+5’ Nice stuff from Schmidt, goes inside and tries a one-two with Piroe but the ball actually drops for Piroe and he goes in on the keeper and finishes really well from a tight angle. Outside of the left boot, running goalward from the left. Lovely.

Final whistle any minute now

90+4’ Bogle launches one into orbit. Ran onto it a long way out. Guilavogui making a nuisance of himself in the final third and linking up with Aaronson prior to that.

90’ SIX added minutes here. Not sure where that’s come from. Daniel Farke unimpressed.

89’ Gnonto replaced by Schmidt.

88’ Isaac Schmidt is going to get a few minutes.

86’ Guilavogui wins his first tackle and finds a nice pass to Piroe. He finds Gnonto who runs to the edge of the area and shoots but he's too wide and Nardi gathers.

84’ Tanaka gives it away, QPR have a chance to counter, Celar scoops his shot over the bar. That was a good chance.

Meanwhile, Guilavogui on for Rothwell.

81’ Lloyd and Morrison on; Ashby and Varane off.

Josuha Guilavogui being prepared from the Leeds bench.

75’ James' first cross is lovely, Piroe knocks defender down but can't get on the ball. Gnonto with another deflected effort. Corner Leeds.

75’ Really good stuff from Aaronson and Gnonto before Bogle strides into the area and takes over, low shot saved. Ball won't come down for Piroe just in front of goal.
