Team News

Cardiff
Sunderland
  • Expect an unchanged line-up from Sabri Lamouchi when Sunderland travel to the Millennium Stadium on Monday.
  • The home side have four confirmed absentees for the visit of Sunderland, while Callum O'Dowda is a doubt once again.
  • Tony Mowbray could also opt for an unchanged starting XI, although there will be calls for Dennis Cirkin to return after the Black Cats shipped four goals against Hull on Friday.
  • Monday's visitors have seven confirmed absentees for the trip to South Wales.

Prediction

  • A dominant first-half display helped Cardiff to a priceless victory on Friday as the Welsh club beat relegation rivals Blackpool 3-1 at Bloomfield Road. That win moved Sabri Lamouchi's men up to 19th place on Friday, but the Bluebirds remain just one point clear of the relegation zone.
  • Sunderland's faint playoff hopes were all but ended on Friday when a 97th-minute Ozan Tufan goal tied the scoreline at 4-4 following an immense battle with Liam Rosenior's Hull side. Tony Mowbray's side have drawn three league games in a row ahead of their trip to South Wales.
