Cardiff City have reported a relatively clean

Cardiff City have reported a relatively clean bill of health heading into the match at Cardiff City Stadium.

Robert Glatzel will return to the fray, having sat out at Ashton Gate last weekend following a head collision he sustained against Charlton.

Aside from that, City have no fresh injury concerns.

Greg Cunningham and Isaac Vassell are around the training group every day, but while the former is ahead in his progress, neither will be available for the game against Blackburn Rovers.

Neil Harris on Monday admitted that Lee Tomlin has been closely monitored of late, with his injury situation a lot more complex than initially thought. So whether the playmaker is available from the off it is as yet unknown.

Rovers, meanwhile, are desperately short in the left-back position, with Amari'i Bell and Derrick Williams both absent since the restart and their replacements Joe Rankin-Costello and Elliott Bennett both suffering injuries in matches.

Bennett has deputised in the full-back role for the last three fixtures but was forced off early in the defeat to Leeds United after a collision with Jack Harrison.

The initial diagnosis was that it was a dead leg, but Bennett is expected to travel with the squad.
