The first-division clash scheduled for 10 a.m. ET will be held at Loftus Road in London and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on NBC Sports.
What They're Saying
QPR manager Harry Redknapp (via BBC): "I've got a great relationship with the owner and the shareholders, but if they want to take a change of direction, then that's their decision. There's nothing I can do about that. Whatever they do, they do. There's no point losing sleep."
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal (via BBC): "He [Radamel Falcao] has to prove himself, that we have agreed. We have made this deal and everything is clear and it is not the end of the year [the duration of his loan spell], so he has the chance for that."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Falcao's injuries, not his productivity have been the issue in Manchester. In 12 league appearances, the 28-year-old does boast three goals and three assists.
QPR's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Green; Hill, Caulker, Dunne, Isla; Fer, Mutch, Barton, Vargas; Austin, Zamora
Manchester United's Projected Lineup (3-5-2): Gea; Blind, Smalling, Jones; Shaw, Maria, Carrick, Fellaini, Valencia; Rooney, Falcao
