Latest: QPR 0 Stoke 1

Mame Biram Diouf’s close-range header means QPR are behind at Loftus Road.

Stoke manager Mark Hughes was given a predictably hostile reception from the home supporters because of his ill-fated spell as Rangers boss.

The Welshman is faring much better at Stoke, however, and they went ahead in the 11th minute.

Mauricio Isla’s hesitation enabled Victor Moses to cross from the left and Peter Crouch, perhaps unfairly, climbed above Rio Ferdinand to nod the ball down and give Diouf a simple finish.

Moses then had a low shot saved by Green as the visitors continued to have the upper hand.

QPR: Green; Isla, Caulker, Ferdinand, Traore: Barton; Mutch, Fer, Kranjcar; Vargas, Austin.
Subs: McCarthy, Phillips, Onuoha, Henry, Zamora, Dunne, Hoilett.

Stoke: Begovic; Bardsley, Shawcross, Wilson, Pieters; Whelan, Nzonzi; Diouf, Adam, Moses; Crouch.
Subs: Sorensen, Huth, Muniesa, Arnautovic, Sidwell, Assaidi, Bojan.
