Striker Heidar Helguson will miss Cardiff City's bid to seal promotion to the Premier League against Charlton on Tuesday because of injury.

Iceland international Hulguson, 35, damaged a hamstring in Saturday's 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest.

And having scored the opener, Helguson watched substitute Rudy Gestede's second-half brace.

Fellow striker Fraizer Campbell and defender Matt Connolly also remain on the sidelines.

Campbell, who joined the Bluebirds in January 2012, has an ankle problem.

A groin strain keeps Connolly on the sidelines as they face a side bidding for a play-off place and who beat Barnsley 6-0 on Saturday.

His head will probably have taken us to the Prem, his goal and getting smacked in the face.

It is a blow but I think that we can manage without him and his experience that he offers upfront.
