What's the team news?

Cardiff City are sweating on the fitness of Joe Ralls and Joe Bennett, both of whom returned to training only on Thursday.

The duo are both struggling with calf injuries, with Bennett thought to be further along the line in terms of recovery, having partaken in a full training session on Thursday, while Ralls only went through a light training session.

Lee Tomlin and Josh Murphy are both in contention for this weekend, too, having both suffered niggles in the last few weeks, but Neil Harris said the prospect of them playing the full 90 minutes is "quite unlikely".

Isaac Vassell is the long-term absentee, having yet to fully recover from a quad injury.






Meanwhile, Blackburn Rovers will be without Joe Rankin-Costello for Saturday's visit of Cardiff City after sustaining a hamstring injury in the victory over Derby County last week.

But Tony Mowbray is hopeful of Corry Evans and Sam Gallagher returning to supplement his first-team squad.

Vassell must have the most horrific quad injury in medical history. Bamba was back sooner from an acl repair!
