Queens Park Rangers will take on Chelsea tomorrow in the FA Cup fourth round at Loftus Road for the first time since the racism controversy concerning Anton Ferdinand and John Terry.
Both Premier League sides are keen to distract attention from the incident as Ferdinand and Terry are due to start in West London.
QPR's new signing Nedum Onuoha could feature on the bench for Mark Hughes, while loanee Taye Taiwo is expected to miss out as he waits for international clearance.
Despite Senegal's early exit from the African Cup of Nations, defender Armand Traore has not returned to Rangers in time for tomorrow's match. Jay Bothroyd is suffering from a groin injury so Federico Macheda could take the striker's spot.
Andre Villas-Boas is expected to hand Gary Cahill his first start for the club after he was snubbed for the Blues' stalemate against Norwich City on Saturday.
While Frank Lampard is likely to miss out with a calf injury, Daniel Sturridge and Fernando Torres are expected to lead the line for the former Premier League champions.
Current form:
Queens Park Rangers: LDLLLW
Chelsea: DDLWWD
Possible lineups:
QPR: Kenny; Hill, Hall, Ferdinand, Young; Derry, Buzasky, Barton, Wright-Phillips; Bothroyd, Helguson
Chelsea: Cech; Bosingwa, Cahill, Terry, Cole; Romeu, Ramires, Meireles, Mata; Sturridge, Torres
Sports Mole says: 1-2
