soccernet.espn.go.com/preview?id=184476&cc=5739Midfielder Tommy Doherty is banned for QPR's home match against Leeds. The 26-year-old begins a three-match suspension following his straight red card in the 1-0 win over Luton on Tuesday and could be replaced by recent signing Steve Lomas. But striker Dean Sturridge (hamstring) should be available for the visit of Kevin Blackwell's men. Captain Kevin Gallen (thigh) has missed the last two matches and the Leeds fixture may come too soon for him. Midfielder Martin Rowlands (knee) and defender Matthew Rose (groin) are also likely to miss out. Leeds could be left without a number of players at Loftus Road after a viral infection spread throughout the club. Rob Hulse was originally carrying the illness but other members of the squad have now contracted it and after a doctor was called in, boss Kevin Blackwell will make a late decision over the fitness of those affected. To make matter worse, doubts remain over David Healy with the striker still carrying a thigh strain picked up during his international heroics for Northern Ireland. Midfielder Gylfi Einarsson could also be ruled out after being taken to hospital for further X-rays on his wrist after dislocating his finger and putting his hand out of joint.
