Queens Park Rangers boss Harry Redknapp has insisted that away wins are vital if the club is to gain promotion to the Premier League.

The R's, who started their Championship campaign with a 2-1 victory at home to Sheffield Wednesday last weekend, travel to Huddersfield Town on Saturday.

"We need to be able to go away from home and win this season and I feel we've got the right characters in the squad to do that, I really do," Redknapp told the club's official website.

"They're a decent side and Huddersfield is a well-run club. It's a decent stadium up there as well, so we know it won't be easy."

Huddersfield were beaten 1-0 at Nottingham Forest in their Championship opener last Saturday.
