Julien Stephan Discusses QPR's Challenge at Blackburn's Ewood Park

Julien Stephan has indicated that the expansive pitch at Ewood Park will present a significant challenge for his QPR team in their upcoming match against Blackburn on Saturday.

This season, Rangers have achieved a victory at Portsmouth's Fratton Park and secured a draw at home against Bolton at Loftus Road. Stephan noted that both of these pitches are considerably smaller than Blackburn's, which will alter the dynamics of the game.

He acknowledged that while the larger pitch offers more space for both defense and attack, Blackburn is a strong team with talented players. Additionally, Stephan is preparing for a demanding schedule, with six matches set to take place over three weeks, which will require careful management of player fitness.
