In-form striker Patrick Agyemang is fit for Queens Park Rangers, but Burnley are set to be without three players.

Agyemang suffered a dead leg after scoring twice against Southampton at the weekend, but has been passed fit for Tuesday's game.

That leaves Fitz Hall as QPR's only injury absentee, with the defender out for six weeks with a groin injury.

Damion Stewart and Akos Buzsaky could return to the starting line-up after only being on the bench at Southampton after international duty.

Burnley news

Clarets boss Owen Coyle is again expected to be without the services of Steve Jones, Alan Mahon and Clarke Carlisle.

Jones (knee) and Mahon (groin) have missed the club's last two games, while a hamstring injury has kept Carlisle out of the last seven matches.

David Unsworth could miss out after being laid low by a bug, while Chris McCann will have a fitness test on a groin injury.

Ade Akinbiyi will be hoping for a recall after making a positive impact as a substitute against Colchester at the weekend.

If he is thrust back into the team, then he is likely to partner Andy Cole up front, with Robbie Blake the man to make way.
