QPR will be without Yoann Barbet and Charlie Owens for the visit of Cardiff.
Defender Barbet continues to recover from a hamstring problem and Owens has a knee injury, but goalkeeper Liam Kelly is available again after damaging his quad in November.
Cardiff are boosted by the return of captain Sean Morrison after a three-match ban for his red card at Leeds.
Lee Peltier is doubtful with a foot injury, while Joe Ralls is unlikely to feature, having broken his hand.
