Pablo Hernandez has missed Leeds' past six games with muscle and hamstring strainsFollow live text coverage from 12:15 GMT on Saturday

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.
