In team news Steven Naismith, James McCarthy and Darron Gibson will all have late fitness tests, while Gareth Barry is out and John Stones could make a surprise return. QPR are missing Charlie Austin through suspension.
What they’re saying
Roberto Martinez on threat of QPR: “I think Harry Redknapp now has found the right formula and they are in the best moment of their season. They’ve been unfortunate in a couple of games, I think they should have had more points than what they’ve got. I know they’ve got Charlie Austin missing for this game but I think this group are in a good moment and we respect them hugely.”
Prediction
QPR have not gained a single point on the road all season, and Goodison Park is a tough place to go. Without Charlie Austin, I just don’t see how the R’s are going to win. It will be far from a comfortable home victory, but I think Everton will take it 2-0.
