West Bromwich Albion head down to London for a clash with QPR at MATRADE Loftus Road on Saturday afternoon hoping to build on the success of last weekend (ko 3pm).
The Baggies came from behind to claim a dramatic 3-2 triumph over Swansea City at The Hawthorns, with Aune Heggebø notching a brace before Jayson Molumby slotted in a late winner.
Hosts QPR have picked up the same amount of points as Ryan Mason's men (25), but were beaten 3-1 at Norwich in their most recent fixture - a result which brought their three-game unbeaten run to an end.

The opposition
QPR have made a steady start to the season and are sat comfortably in the middle of the table heading into the clash with the Baggies.
The Londoners have won seven, drawn four and lost seven of their 18 matches played in the Championship so far this term, earning 25 points.
QPR are one of three teams to have spent the joint-longest time in the second tier, joining both Bristol City and Preston North End in this division for an eleventh straight year.
Saturday's hosts have found consistency in front of their own supporters difficult to come by in the early knockings of the campaign. They've won three, drawn two and lost three of their eight matches at MATRADE Loftus Road. They did, however, record an exciting 3-2 triumph over Hull City on their own turf in their most recent game there.
Frenchman Julien Stéphan is the boss. The 45-year-old, who has also managed Rennes twice and Strasbourg, was appointed in the summer after Marti Cifuentes departed. He had a playing career in his younger days, turning out for the likes of PSG B, Toulouse, RC Paris and Stade Briochin.
QPR were beaten 3-1 at Norwich last weekend, with that defeat coming off the back of a pair of victories over Hull City and Blackburn Rovers and a draw at Sheffield United. Stéphan will be hoping to see his group get back on track and move closer to the top six when Ryan Mason's men come to town.
Memorable meeting
The Baggies were crowned Championship winners at QPR in May 2008.
Martin Rowlands was dismissed for the hosts in the opening period and Tony Mowbray's men went on to score twice in the second 45.
Kim Do-Heon made it 1-0 before Chris Brunt curled in a classy free-kick to cap off an unforgettable campaign.

A special afternoon in the capital.

Albion's recent record at MATRADE Loftus Road
QPR 1-3 Albion, August 2024
The Baggies began the 2024/25 campaign with a blistering win in London thanks to Josh Maja's hat-trick. Lucas Andersen powered home a header inside the opening 20 minutes, but Maja nodded in a leveller before the break. The No.9 scored his second early on in the second period with another header and then went on to complete his treble 25 minutes from the end with an acrobatic effort. Check out the highlights below.
QPR 2-2 Albion, March 2024
The two teams played out an entertaining four-goal draw in the early part of March in 2024. Former Baggie Sam Field put the home team in front, but quickfire goals from Mikey Johnston and Grady Diangana turned the tussle on its head. Albion looked to be heading for three points, but the R's struck back and equalised in the final ten minutes when Field bagged his second.
QPR 0-1 Albion, November 2022
Carlos Corberán's Baggies secured three very welcome points at MATRADE Loftus Road in early November during the 2022/23 term. Kyle Bartley's second-half header was enough to settle a tightly-contested tussle in the capital city.
How's that for a stat
The Baggies are looking to extend their unbeaten run at QPR to four matches on Saturday (W2, D1). The last time this weekend's hosts beat Albion at MATRADE Loftus Road was back in January 2022 when Charlie Austin nodded in a late winner.
Forward Aune Heggebø has scored five goals in his last four games. The Norwegian headed in the winner against Oxford United before bagging braces against Coventry City and Swansea City. Watch his second goal from the draw with the Swans below.
Albion have lost just one of their last 12 games against QPR (1-0 at MATRADE Loftus Road in January 2022), winning eight and drawing three.
QPR have scored in all but one of their eight home games in 2025/26 - a 0-0 draw with Oxford in early October.
