QPR striker Austin hopes to make Dad's day at Man Utd

QPR striker Charlie Austin hopes to do his Dad a favour today at Manchester United.

Austin, who nearly joined Hull City last year but failed a medical, has extra reason to score against United - his dad is a huge supporter of bitter rivals Liverpool.

He said: "My dad is a Liverpool fan and him and my granddad come to every game so I'm really looking forward to going to Anfield later this season."
