Bosingwa expected to make home bow versus Walsall

MARK HUGHES has revealed he will select a strong squad for Tuesday night’s Capital One Cup tie against Walsall at Loftus Road.

Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk ahead of the second round clash against the Saddlers, Hughes said: “We’ll take this competition seriously, without any doubt.

“I’ll pick a team I believe can help us progress into the third round.”

Hughes is likely to hand a first start to Jose Bosingwa, who entered the fray as a second half substitute against Norwich on Saturday, whilst Shaun Wright-Phillips will also definitely feature.

The R's boss added: “I will make changes to the side, but that doesn’t mean it’s a competition I don’t respect.

“Jose will come in for his first start and Shaun – who had a great pre-season and has been very unlucky not to feature more so far this season – will play.

“Other players who are in and around the first team squad will also get a run out, because they need games to keep them ticking over.”

Tickets for the clash in W12 are still available, priced £15 adults; £10 concessions (Juniors Under 16 / Seniors Over 60 / Young Adults 16-21); £10 disabled / ambulant (carer free of charge). Call 08444 777 007 now or clickhere!
