Could be 5-4-1 with Harris and Hoilet out wide

If nothing else at least we are not predictable with our formation.

C'mon City :bluescarf:

Neil Warnock's Cardiff City side go in search of a vital three points against Ipswich Town today that would see them climb out of the Championship's bottom three.

The Bluebirds play three times in the space of a week having won only once in their last five league games.

They are currently five points behind 16th placed Ipswich ahead of today's meeting and are set to be boosted by the return of Lee Pelter who is available again after missing the 0-0 draw with Brighton through suspension - but doubts remain over the fitness of Rickie Lambert who did not play last time out.

Cardiff have won only twice in their last 20 trips to Portman Road but collected four points in the two fixtures against Mick McCarthy's side last season.

So can they pick up a vital three points and climb out of the relegation zone?

Stay with us for all the latest team news, updates and reaction.

Ipswich Town: Bialkowski, Chambers (capt), Webster, Berra, Knudsen, Skuse, Douglas, Ward, Lawrence, McGoldrick, Varney.

Subs: Gerken, Emmanuel, Bishop, Bru, Wililams, Sears, Pitman.

Cardiff City: Amos, Peltier, Bennett, Bamba, Morrison, Connolly, Whittingham, Gunarsson, Hoilett, Harris, Lambert.

Subs: Wilson, Manga, Richardson, Ralls, Noone, Pilkington, Zohore.

I like the sound of harris upfront with rickie, i think harris could be a real threat up there if rickie holds the ball up well and give's him plenty of flick ons to run onto :thumbup: :bluescarf:

Great to see Hoilett and Harris still in the same team, but where exactly they’ll line up remains to be seen :thumbright: :bluebird:

I think we may see connolly playing just in front of the back 4 with gunnarsson and whitts in midfield rather than a flat back 5.

Soon find out. Harris did play up front at Norwich with Revell, we got 2 goals and almost snatched a point against a very good side.
His pace caused them problems.

May be an option , especially if we are chasing the fame late on

Always thought we should have used KH more forward - as long as he is wearing his shooting boots :thumbup:
