Stoke keeper Josef Bursik is almost caught out as he comes to punch away a ball into the box and doesn't clear his lines well.

Then Ilias Chair has a low shot blocked by a teammate who was offside.

The players have a breather and a chance to take on drinks as a Potters defender gets some treatment for an injury.

The game - far from a classic anyway - is getting a bit broken up by these substitutions.

Jordan Thompson comes on for Josh Tymon in the Stoke midfield.

QPR striker Lyndon Dykes comes off and is replaced by Macauley Bonne.

The hosts have looked brighter in the past 10 minutes after weathering a storm at the start of the half.

The 2,000 QPR fans haven't had much to shout about tonight.

Their side are yet to have a shot on target tonight.

Stoke are solid defensively, but Rangers are lacking sparkle in the final third.

The game has become even scrappier.

QPR look to be mounting a decent attack and then a lay-off by Lyndon Dykes goes astray.

Time for a couple of changes by the hosts.

Chris Willock and Dominic Ball are on.

Albert Adomah and Tom Carroll are the men replaced.

Best chance of the night and it falls to Stoke.

Josh Tymon latches on to a ball over the top of the Rangers defence and strikes at goal from a narrow angle.

Hoops keeper Seny Dieng saves but then the ball deflects off Todd Kane and onto the bar.

A lucky escape for the hosts.

No changes at the break and the visitors get the game going again.

Hopefully something will happen in the second half.
