Team News

Cardiff
Norwich
  • Ömer Riza will be forced into a couple of changes this weekend after Perry Ng picked up his fifth yellow card of the season and Callum Robinson suffered an injury against West Brom.
  • Will Fish could be the man to step in at right-back when Norwich come to town, while Wilfried Kanga may get the nod to deputise for Robinson up top.
  • Johannes Thorup will be without defensive midfielder Kenny McLean on Saturday after he was sent off during the game against Middlesbrough.
  • Jacob Sorensen could be the man to replace him in what will be an elsewhere unchanged starting XI.

Prediction

  • Cardiff were outshot 19-5 by West Brom at the Hawthorns last weekend but a strong defensive display allowed them to escape the Midlands with a point to show for their efforts. Ömer Riza continues to show promise during his interim term with the Bluebirds heading into this game with three wins and two draws from their last five league fixtures.
  • Norwich's afternoon looked to be over when Finn Azaz put Middlesbrough 3-1 ahead in first-half stoppage time last weekend, but the Canaries fought back hard in the second 45 and eventually salvaged a 3-3 draw. Johannes Thorup's men are now unbeaten in seven Championship matches, although their last three fixtures have all ended in stalemates.
