Pack has one decent game in ten and is suddenly undroppable. Ojo must be contracted to play. Holiett looks like he has had a slow start and out of any form.
Can't see anything but a Rovers win.
I still live in hope

Smithies comes out and collects an early cross bound for Brereton.

Hoilett flicks a header on for Moore, but the goalkeeper rushes out to collect comfortably.

Armstrong shifts it past Morrison and whips in a lovely ball to the back post, where the ball is headed across goal by Nyambe, but Nelson hoofs it clear.

What a block!
Osei-Tutu misjudges a header and nods it into the path of Brereton, who lays off Armstrong on the edge of the area. The Rovers man drills a low shot but Nelson lunges in the way in the nick of time!

Junior Hoilett with some excellent work down the left flank. He shifts the ball inside, on his right foot, and fizzes an effort towards the top corner, but Kaminski dives and tips it round the post!

So dangerous from Tomlin.
Osei-Tutu heads on an excellent, meandering run from right back before Tomlin is found on the edge of the area. The playmaker turns a reverse pass in behind the Blackburn back line, but Sheyi Ojo just cannot get to it!
Very encouraging from a Cardiff perspective though.

Rothwell lifts a cross on the angle towards the back post but it's far too long.
Meanwhile, Joe Bennett has gone down clutching his face in the box and the medical team come on to signal for a substitution.

Save by Smithies
Holtby picks out Armstrong in the box and lifts it back across goal. It's awkward and looping and Smithies can only flap at it and put it behind for a corner.

Sheyi Ojo does excellently to win a corner for the Bluebirds down the left-hand side.

Not good
Pack's cross is massively overhit. Goal kick.
