The Football League have now announced the Match Day officials that will take charge of the game against Blackburn Rovers this Wednesday.
Cardiff City host Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday August 17 for the game at the Cardiff City Stadium and the match carries a 7.45pm kick off.
Referee: Andy Davies
Linesmen: Adam Nunn and Andrew Quin
Fourth Official: Simon Hooper
Match Day referee Davies has officiated three games in 2016/17 with a return of ten yellow cards and zero red cards.
He took charge of 36 matches last season and in those games, across all competitions and football divisions, he handed out a total of 127 yellow cards and five red cards.
He was most card happy in the match between Charlton and Leeds on December 12 with a total of eight yellow cards being shown. Wimbledon and Notts County on September saw seven yellows and he also showed seven in the November tie between MK Dons and Charlton.
A former player with a number of clubs at youth level, Davies capitalised on this experience to make a rapid rise through the refereeing ranks. He was appointed to the EFL Referees List in 2012/13 and since then has refereed over 100 EFL matches.
