Half-time: QPR 0 Leeds United 0

Nedum Onuoha of QPR

Chris Wood had the best chance of the first half at Loftus Road, where Grant Hall went closest for QPR.

Liam Cooper lifted the ball forward and after Rob Green hesitated, Wood rounded him but was left at an acute angle and keeper Green had time to get back into position before the Leeds striker sliced a shot high and wide of the target.

Rangers, without a goal in their last four matches, felt they might have had a penalty for a push by Giuseppe Bellusci on Junior Hoilett.

Seconds later, Hall headed over from Alejandro Faurlin’s right-wing corner.

And a couple of minutes before the interval, R’s captain Nedum Onuoha fired narrowly over with a firmly-struck 30-yarder.

Hoilett was restored to the starting line-up by interim boss Neil Warnock, who gave winger Michael Petrasso, 20, his full QPR debut.

Charlie Austin, who has been nursing a calf problem, is among the Rangers substitutes.

QPR: Green, Perch, Onuoha. Hall, Konchesky, Petrasso, Faurlin, Sandro, Yun, Hoilett, Phillips.
Subs: Smithies, Austin, Henry, Chery, Luongo, Tozser. Angella.
