John Terry and Anton Ferdinand will both start in the FA Cup fourth-round clash.

There has been speculation over the past week regarding the possibility of both being left out due to the intense pressure of the impending racism case between both players.

Wright-Phillips is to start against his former club. Tommy Smith is also chosen to partner Heidar Helguson up front by Mark Hughes.

Fernando Torres continues to lead the line for Chelsea, with Drogba away on international duty. Malouda is also brought into midfield by Andre Villas-Boas.

QPR: Kenny; Young, Hall, Ferdinand, Hill; Mackie, Buzsaky, Barton, Wright-Phillips; Helguson, Smith

Chelsea: Cech; Ivanovic, Terry, Luiz, Cole; Malouda, Meireles, Ramires; Mata, Torres, Sturridge
