Team News

Cardiff
Leeds
  • Erol Bulut could make a handful of changes this weekend with Will Fish, Alex Robertson and Chris Willock stepping into the starting XI.
  • Jesper Daland is among five confirmed absentees in the Cardiff stable this weekend.
  • Joe Rodon should miss the game against Cardiff in line with concussion protocols, so expect Ethan Ampadu to deputise at centre-back.
  • That move will facilitate a debut for former Fortuna Düsseldorf midfielder Ao Tanaka.

Prediction

  • Cardiff failed to respond to Kenzo Goudmijn's 28th-minute goal at Pride Park last weekend as they suffered a narrow 1-0 away defeat against newly-promoted Derby.
  • The Bluebirds have claimed just a single point from their opening five league games, meaning Erol Bulut is under significant pressure ahead of this difficult gameweek six fixture.
  • Leeds' unbeaten start to the Championship campaign came crashing to an end in gameweek five as Luca Koleosho's early strike proved enough to see off Daniel Farke's side at Elland Road.
  • The Yorkshire-based outfit are unbeaten on the road this season and will expect to keep that run going at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday.
