Cifuentes wants a strong finish to season

Marti Cifuentes' QPR side have picked up five points from three games to ease relegation fears

Marti Cifuentes said Queens Park Rangers will not rest after a three-match unbeaten run carried them to the brink of Championship safety.

Draws against Cardiff City and Bristol City sandwiched an important win at Oxford United last week to take Rangers past the benchmark 50 points total that usually signifies a team is clear of relegation fears.

Cifuentes, however, wants to climb the table further as his team prepare to travel to Preston North End on Friday.

"We're ready to finish in a good way as we did last season," he told BBC Radio London.

"It's a decent amount of points. My target is always to be better, always to try to push and make sure we win the next game, and that's where my focus is, not only looking down but looking up as well.

"We have a gap of only three points between us and the next team in the table and we are playing Swansea in a few days as well, who are not far from us in table position.

"Those 50 points usually mean safety, but mathematically it's not done yet and it's important to try to win the last four games.

"I want to think we will arrive to these last four games in a good trend, with energy and with a lot of players who didn't play an amount of games and are fresh mentally and physically. It's a good opportunity for us to finish in a strong way."
