QPR veteran Richard Dunne says they must go on the attack against Burnley this weekend.

No side in Premier League history has survived without at least one away win - and the stalwart defender reckons Burnley is as good as place as any to get a first three points on the road.

"The away games are now more realistic in getting points insofar as they're against the teams we're going to be battling against (to avoid the drop)," Dunne told the Fulham Chronicle.

"Previously, we just played teams in the top half of the table and we knew they would be tough trips.

"Now we're going into a set of games where we can pick up points. But we need to work as we have at home and take the risk of going 4-4-2 away.

"The game against Burnley is massive, and we need to try and open a gap and get to 40 points as soon as possible."
