Why?????
From the Club:

'QPR Under-18s will take on Arsenal in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup next month.
The tie will be played on Saturday 18th January 2025, kicking off at 5pm.

This fixture will take place at Boreham Wood's Meadow Park with entry free to all.

Tom Charles’s youngsters overcame Swindon Town 3-1 in the third round while the young Gunners
beat Hereford Town 4-3.

Due to the tie clashing with QPR’s first-team fixture at Plymouth Argyle, we will be unable to provide
a live stream of the Under-18s’ match.'
