Sports Mole previews Queens Park Rangers' vital clash against Everton in the Premier League this Sunday.

Queens Park Rangers are in desperate need of Premier League points as they continue to search for their first victory of the campaign when they take on Everton this Sunday.

Mark Hughes, who has received full backing from QPR owner Tony Fernandes, sits at the bottom of the league table with his side, who have claimed just two points out of a possible 21.

Meanwhile, Everton will be hoping to hold on to their spot in the top four following a strong start to the season, where they have grabbed 14 points and sit just one point adrift of English champions Manchester City.

The focus will be on QPR defender Anton Ferdinand, who has reportedly planned to boycott the 'Kick It Out' campaign by refusing to wear an anti-racism T-shirt during the warm-up of Sunday's fixture.

Despite the controversy, Ferdinand should appear in the starting lineup alongside Modibo Diakite, who is due to return following a one-match suspension.

Meanwhile, Everton boss David Moyes is likely to enlist the services of Nikica Jelavic and Marouane Fellaini to provide goal threat for the away side.
