Team News: Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink names Charlie Austin on bench for Queens Park Rangers

Hasselbaink names Austin on bench for QPR

Queens Park Rangers striker Charlie Austin has been left on the bench for the second successive game as his side host Burnley at Loftus Road.

Austin may have been expecting a recall under new boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, but the Dutchman has decided to leave the club's top goalscorer among the replacements.

Hasselbaink has made just the one alteration to the team that beat Reading nine days ago, with Karl Henry coming in for Michael Petrasso.

Burnley manager Sean Dyche witnessed his team lose 2-0 at home to Preston North End last weekend, but he has gone with the same XI that started that game.

Queens Park Rangers: Green, Perch, Hall, Onuoha, Konchesky, Henry, Faurlin, Sandro, Hoilett, Fer, Phillips Subs: Smithies, Chery, Luongo, Angella, Tozser, Emmanuel-Thomas, Austin

Burnley: Heaton, Darikwa, Duff, Keane, Mee, Boyd, Jones, Barton, Arfield, Vokes, Gray Subs: Gilks, Ward, Kightly, Taylor, Lowton, Marney, Hennings
