Hoops set for tough challenge
Hoops face a difficult trip to Sheffield United this afternoon in a test of their promotion credentials.
The R's have kicked off the season with victory over Barnsley in the Championship and Swindon in the Carling Cup but can expect a stiff examination at Bramall Lane.
United have been busy in the transfer market this summer with Darius Henderson joining from Watford. They were unfortunate to lose to a last minute goal at Birmingham on Saturday and Kevin Blackwell's team will be expected to challenge for a play-off spot this season.
On-loan Real Madrid talent Daniel Parejo is likely to keep his place in the team after impressing at Swindon on his full debut.
