I am actually really looking forward to this game. We could do with the confidence boost that comes from smashing a team a couple of rungs below us. Walsall are 13th in League one and have scored 2 goals in three matches.
I'm gonna predict 3-0 to the Super Hoops!
Here is what the BBC have to say about the match:
TEAM NEWS
Bobby Zamora will miss QPR's Capital One Cup clash with Walsall after sustaining a gash to the head.
New signing Jose Bosingwa is set to start, as is Shaun Wright-Phillips but Alejandro Faurlin and Kieron Dyer are unlikely to feature.
Richard Taundry is pushing for a return from a hamstring injury for Walsall.
Febian Brandy is not expected to be available due to a hamstring injury but the Saddlers have no new injury problems.
MATCH FACTS
QPR
-They were winners in 1967, when West Brom were beaten 3-2 in the final, and Rodney Marsh was among their scorers.
-Last season's second round humiliation by League One Rochdale was their third successive defeat in the League Cup.
-Mark Hughes' team are in danger of a third straight League Cup loss to lower league opposition at Loftus Road.
-They have failed to reach the third round in six of the last eight seasons.
Walsall
-The Saddlers were semi-finalists in 1984.
-The 1-0 home win over Brentford was the first time they had successfully negotiated the first round in six seasons.
-This is only their second appearance in the second round in nine years.
-Walsall last eliminated a top-flight club in October 1984, when Coventry were on the wrong end of a 4-2 aggregate score in the second round.
-They have scored no more than one goal in any of their last 11 League Cup ties.

I think our form and results so far this season mean Hughes will probably have to take this game a bit more seriously than he probably intended too!
Hopefully a strong-ish team out and a resounding win to build a bit of confidence ahead of a very tough September!
I'd like to see Bosingwa, AJ and Nelsen get 90 minutes under their belts too. |  | | |

More than ever we need to win a cup game! I hope as close to the first team as possible playim sure there'll be some who don't Hughes will already have thought about this game before the season started and have his ideas, I just wonder how far off the script things are going so far.
A win tonight PLEASE lads! |  | | |

Listening on Player.
Our defence just sound absent.
Johnson not sounding great either. | |

One of the benefits of having more live video streaming opportunities in the last couple of seasons is that you dont have to listen to QPR Player and risk being subjected to Clive "I hate QPR" Walker constantly dissing us. |  |
