Queens Park Rangers will have undoubtedly headed into their weekend clash in high spirits after seemingly turning their season back in the right direction.

A run of seven league games without a win was brought to an end against Preston North End before a win against Birmingham by the same 2-0 scoreline really lifted spirits.

Losing 5-3 to the Tykes at Oakwell would not have, therefore, been high on any R's fan's wishlist for the weekend.

An Conor Chaplin hat-trick put the hosts on their way before goals from Cauley Woodrow and Bambo Diaby sealed the three points for the hosts.

It was a day with precious few positives for Mark Warburton and his side, although one was certainly apparent in midfield.

Amos made the move to the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium on loan back in the summer and has adapted well to the second-tier, but on Saturday he played his finest game yet.

In fact, during the club's shoddy run of form, it was often the box-to-box midfielder who came in for a lot of stick form the fans - some fair, some not so much.

But he reminded everyone of his abilities in both areas on Saturday.

It was Amos who netted two of QPR's three goals, and he did so from his only two shots of the game, showing impressive efficiency in and around the opposition box - giving him a shot accuracy of 100% in the process.

His pass accuracy of 68% remains impressive, if not quite as hight as he would have hoped, although considering he was part of a side that shipped five goals, it is far from poor.

Although five goals were conceded, it was not from Amos' lack of effort. The 25-year-old completed 14 interceptions during his 96 minutes on the pitch, hinting that if he weren't there, things could have certainly been worse.

Can you remember the outcome of QPR’s last 15 Boxing Day matches?

It seems harsh to pull him up on an attacking aspect, giving how he netted two goals, but one area that left plenty to be desired was his forward passing.

In the entire game he completed just three forward passes which in a role like his is simply not enough. It is a minor thing considering how poor some of this teammates were, but it is well worth remembering.
