' MATCH THREAD: WATFORD V CARDIFF CITY ' MATCH THREAD

Watford is Ticket Only for City Fans.

Lets play with a bit of guts and possibly create a chance away from home... OK we did it all at Brum for me just had lemons upfront that couldnt finish their dinner...


I like others feel we are due an away win soon - a real 'coupon buster'... I just cant see it tomorrow at all and would have to go with 2-0 Watford, maybe 3 if we fall apart like Bolton...

Gutted. Was hoping for a trip on a whim.

Cardiff go to Vicarage Road on Saturday as we look to get our away form going against a Watford side we'll be hoping to be challenging with for Championship promotion at the end of the season.

Watford's former Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes is doubtful with tendonitis so Jonathan Bond stands by. Almen Abdi returns after a shoulder injury so could plat a part but Gabriel Tamas is still out with a cruciate injury.

The same side that beat Reading last week could be named by Russell Slade again as he seeks a first away win as our manager and we look for a first away win of the season, meaning Bruno Manga and Fabio could sit out again with Ben Turner and Matt Connolly favoured.

Last time we met was at Vicarage Road in a Championship game that ended without a goal last year but positively we're unbeaten in the last five meetings we've had going back almost four years.

Another draw would be acceptable, defeat would make it five draws and five defeats away from the Cardiff City Stadium and if we really want to make a play off bid then we don't really want to lose again.

I've got this feeling that we could win though, I've often been known to be wrong though!

Strange

CardiffCity substitutes: Moore, Fabio, Ralls, Adeyemi, Daehli, Macheda & Maynard.

fabio clearly out of favour

Insane that Fabio isn't starting for us anymore...I personally think he's been our best player this season.

Glad to see Macheda dropped though.

3.1 Cardiff!

Abysmal formation, goodbye 3 points

I guess so. He didn't travel & it was stated he's injured.

Anyway, 1 up Le Fondre!!

LeFondre - pleased for him. Hope its the first of a brace.

Listening CCW.

Sounds like Vydra should have scored. Cardiff defending well.

Can't see or listen to it. But that'll do at half time!!!!!!

HT 0-1 CITY.

Good first half for City. It's nice to see us playing decent football for once.

Great football from us at times. Having Jones in instead of Macheda making one hell of a difference, and it's freeing Le Fondre up a lot more.

Need to keep our shape in the second half though. Too often we've sat back in second half after going in with a lead - need to keep pressing.
