EPL Scores, Live Stream & Highlights: Chelsea vs. Queens Park Rangers – Gamecast, Stats & Commentaries

English Premier League leader Chelsea will try to sustain their hot streak when they face off against cellar-dwellers Queens Park Rangers on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea is boasting the best record in the Barclays Premier League with a 7-2-0 slate for 23 points, four points ahead of second-placed Southampton and five points above rival Manchester United.

36-year old Didier Drogba has been sensational as of late, scoring a goal each against Maribor, Manchester United and Shrewsbury. On Saturday, Chelsea's offensive firepower will be even more overwhelming with the return of Spanish goal-scoring machine Diego Costa.

After missing the last three weeks with a hamstring injury, Costa is finally cleared to re-join Chelsea's campaign. However, manager Jose Mourinho stressed Costa will be treated with special care.

"Crystal Palace, Maribor, Shrewsbury and Man United -- four matches in three different competitions. Now he's again available, but he needs obviously to be again under special care. We are going to do that. It's the only thing we can do -- nothing else," Mourinho stated in a pre-game interview on Friday via ESPN FC.

"He's available. That's good for us. It's difficult with only one striker available. When you have two, obviously the situation improves."

Meanwhile, the Queens Park Rangers is just coming off their second win of the season against Aston Villa. QPR manager and England football legend Harry Redknapp has been under pressure because of the team's lackluster form this season, but Mourinho just won't underestimate his opponents' capabilities.

"In my years here they were always in the Championship," Mourinho said. "Everybody knows that London is a special place because of derbies. You play eight or 10 derbies (in a season). The London teams have more difficulties than others, because a derby is always a derby."
