Reading FC manager Veljko Puanovic has kept faith in the team that was beaten 4-3 by Huddersfield last weekend, choosing an unchanged XI for Saturday's trip to QPR.

In goal, Luke Southwood keeps his place despite the arrival of Arsenal loanee Karl Hein.

Andy Yiadom and Bab Rahman will fklank centre-backs Michael Morrison and Tom Holmes while Danny Drinkwater, Josh Laurent and Andy Rinomhota marshall the midfield.

Josh Swift will roam between midfield and attack, Reading's top scorer nothcing a hat-trick against QPR in the autumn.

Up front, George Puscas starts alongside Lucas Joao for the second game running. Meanwhile, Ovie Ejaria - out since November - is back in the sqaud, taking a palce on the bench to start off.

The belief is that it's a 4-4-2 from Reading today but last week, Paunovic started with a back five utilising the same personnel before switching midway through the first half to four at the back.
