Ex-Liverpool midfielder Redknapp backs QPR to force positive result against Man City

Jamie Redknapp believes his father's side can produce a surprise result over Manchester City this weekend.

Harry Redknapp's QPR, who sit second bottom, host the reigning Premier League champions at Loftus Road on Saturday but the Sky Sports pundit can sense a potential upset or at least force a draw.

'…there's been a definite improvement from QPR - and they'll relish the task of taking on Man City at Loftus Road on Saturday Night Football,' he wrote in his pre-match analysis.

'I was covering Manchester City's Champions League defeat to CSKA Moscow on Wednesday and they really were bad. I expected them to wipe the floor with their visitors but they made them look like a good side - which they're not. City really were shocking and unrecognisable from the team we were expecting to see.

City will have to stand up to that but I think the hosts could cause some problems. I'm going for a 2-2 draw - which would be a great result for QPR and good reward for their fighting attitude.'
