The Boro boss will be looking to get one over on them after losing 2-1 back in April - meaning they haven’t taken maximum points from the London outfit since February 2019.
However, Middlesbrough have had a positive start to the Championship season, taking a point off promotion-favourites Fulham and beating Bristol City at the weekend.
QPR, meanwhile, have matched Boro’s points so far and were at their best as they beat Hull City 3-0 on Saturday.
