Southampton maintained their unbeaten start to the Championship season as they held-off battling QPR at St Mary's.
Sam Edozie's first goal for the club put Saints ahead but Jack Colback thumped the visitors level within two minutes.
It needed Adam Armstrong's fine volley - his fourth goal in as many league games - to decide the points in the final half-hour as Saints won at home for the first time since March.
Saints, who were without Nathan Tella and Che Adams with both linked with transfers away from the club, have 10 points from four games while Rangers have lost three of their four matches.
