This will be the first ever league meeting between the sides.
Burton did, however, win the only other previous meeting – 1-0 in the League Cup in August 2014 when they were in League Two and the Hoops were a Premier League outfit.
After enjoying a three-match unbeaten run, the Brewers are winless in four league games (D2 L2).
All 11 of QPR`s goals in the Championship this season have been scored from set-pieces.
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink faces his former side Burton Albion where he won 64% of his league games in charge. At QPR, he`s won just 28% of his Championship matches.
Tjaronn Chery has been directly involved in 55% of QPR`s league goals this season.
Jackson Irvine has scored four goals from six shots on target in the Championship this season.
Burton will be without the suspended Tom Flanagan while fellow defenders Damien McCrory and John Brayford miss out.
