Queens Park Rangers secured a much-needed win in Week 9 over Aston Villa, but any hopes of building on that good result may have to be banished until after their next game. Current EPL leaders Chelsea are next up for Harry Redknapp's men in a game which will likely see the R's return to losing ways. Chelsea drew with Manchester United in Week 9 but will now be looking for a big win to re-establish their dominance at the top of the standings.

QPR may go into the game against Chelsea with some additional confidence and perhaps a sense of having nothing to lose in this particular game, but don't expect either of those things to really aid their cause. Thibaut Courtois has been exceptional for Chelsea this season, and he will be a formidable obstacle for visitors. Courtois, surprisingly, only has three clean sheets so far this season, but his fourth will come in this game.

Manchester City face local rivals Manchester United on Sunday, which will give Chelsea the opportunity to extend their lead and apply some pressure with a win of their own on Saturday. Expect Chelsea to come out flying from the kickoff and a goal will come for the Blues inside ten minutes.

Cesc Fabregas was poor by his high standards against Manchester United. His position in big games doesn't particularly suit him, but nevertheless, Fabregas will be back to his absolute best against QPR.

Eden Hazard seems to get better with every passing season he is at Chelsea. His potential could allow him to become one of the absolute elite players in the world, and he is certainly heading in that direction. Hazard was fantastic against Manchester United, and he will continue that form with a man of the match display against QPR.

QPR will feel they could upset the odds after their win over Aston Villa, but once Chelsea get into top gear, they will slice through the QPR defense at will. Goal difference could be important come the end of the season, and that's why in games like these, Chelsea will be looking to score as many as they can. Four goals should be expected, but, realistically, it could be even more if Chelsea happen to reach their best form on the day.
