Team News

Cardiff
Leeds
  • Erol Bulut could revert back to the starting XI that faced QPR with the only change being the return of Josh Bowler out wide.
  • Aaron Ramsey, Callum O'Dowda and Karlan Grant have all been ruled out ahead of the visit of Leeds.
  • Daniel Farke will have Illan Meslier available this weekend after he served a three-match suspension for shoving Preston striker Milutin Osmajic.
  • Luke Ayling and Jamie Shackleton both returned last Sunday against Peterborough, meaning the visitors have two injuries to contend with here.

Prediction

  • Cardiff secured a vital three points away from home against relegation-threatened QPR last time out in the league, but a humbling 4-0 away defeat against Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup will give Erol Bulut cause for concern.
  • Additionally, the Bluebirds have lost four and drawn one of their last six home Championship fixtures.
  • Leeds returned to winning ways in emphatic fashion two weeks ago, hammering Birmingham 3-0 to bring an end to Wayne Rooney's time in charge.
  • A comfortable 3-0 win against League One frontrunners Peterborough has only boosted confidence for the visitors, who are seven points shy of second-placed Ipswich.
