The West Ham substitute bench for their most recent league clash - Teddy Sheringham, Sergei Rebrov, Steve Lomas and Andy Melville - shows the disparity between the resources at Alan Pardew's disposal compared to most of his Championship rivals. Promotion is expected at Upton Park this season, while cash-strapped QPR would settle for mid-table security. But Ian Holloway's men are punching above their weight at the moment and are two points ahead of the Hammers going into this clash. If Rangers can pull off their seventh successive league victory on Saturday, the fans will be calling for Holloway to be given the freedom of Shepherd's Bush.
