Duo set to miss out but Sandro can return

Joey Barton and Jordon Mutch look likely to miss QPR’s trip to Southampton this weekend but Sandro has been given the green light to return to training. 

Recent signing Sandro was ruled out of Rangers’ 2-2 draw at home to Stoke on Saturday after hurting his knee during a training session.

Fellow midfielders Barton and Mutch came through fitness tests to play in that game but went off injured, both with hamstring problems.

And while Sandro is expected to train on Thursday, his two colleagues look increasingly unlikely to be available for the visit to St Mary’s.

All three players are due to be assessed on Thursday morning.
