Marouane Fellaini and Steven Pienaar make their Everton comebacks from suspension for their Premier League meeting with QPR, who are without the banned Bobby Zamora.

Marouane Fellaini and Steven Pienaar are both recalled by Everton manager David Moyes this afternoon after completing their respective suspensions.

Jonny Heitinga and Ross Barkley drop out of the Toffees midfield to accommodate the key duo, who missed the 2-2 draw with fellow Champions League hopefuls Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

Former Spurs boss Harry Redknapp makes four changes to his Queens Park Rangers team that were cruelly denied three points by a stoppage-time Wigan Athletic equaliser in their previous outing.

Striker Bobby Zamora is banned, forcing Redknapp to switch to a 4-5-1 formation, with Esteban Granero and Park Ji-Sung coming into the midfield.

Nedum Onouha deputises for the injured Armand Traore at left-back, while Adel Taarabt is only named among the visiting substitutes at Goodison Park.

Everton: Howard; Baines, Distin, Jagielka, Coleman; Pienaar, Osman, Gibson, Mirallas, Fellaini, Anichebe

QPR: Cesar; Bosingwa, Samba, Hill, Onouha; Townsend, Granero, Park, Jenas, Hoilett; Remy
