Chelsea take a short trip to the Loftus Road to take on relegation threatened Queens Park Rangers for their weekend Barclays Premier League 2014-15 fixture on Sunday. The kick-off is set for 6:00 pm IST and live telecast will be on Star Sports 4 and Star Sports HD 4. Live telecast in the UK will be on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports 1 HD. Netizens in India can watch the match online through the live streaming services provided by Star Sports’ official website.
The Blues come into this game on the back of a 12-game unbeaten run in all competitions and having registered narrow wins over Hull City and Stoke City. Against the Potters, they needed an Eden Hazard penalty and a mistake from goalkeeper Asmir Begovic to secure all three points. Jose Mourinho’s side are on top of the league table with 70 points; four short of second placed Arsenal. However, they have two games remaining in hand and wins in those two will push them closer to the league title.
QPR meanwhile sit 18th in the league table, two points behind 17th placed Hull City. Although a win against the West London club appears unlikely, they will be eager to salvage at least a point to try and pave their way towards the safety zones. The Hoops come into this fixture on the back of a thrilling 3-3 draw midweek against Aston Villa.
