Cardiff City
The Bluebirds will be without vice-captain Sean Morrison who remains out until the weekend or possibly the following fixture, he returned to contact training with the development side late last week.

Craig Noone is expected to miss this one after a fracture on his ribs more than a fortnight ago, the winger is expected to return on the weekend at the earliest.
Sammy Ameobi could play against the club where he spent the 2012/13 season on loan and returns from his one-match suspension. Fabio limped off in the Bluebirds’ last outing and could miss this one.
