Bristol City boss Nigel Pearson could make a few changes to a defence and midfield that shipped six goals last weekend with Dan Bentley, Rob Atkinson and Ayman Benarous all in contention for recalls. The Robins have three confirmed absentees for the visit of Cardiff with Matty James, George Tanner and Joe Williams all unavailable. Steve Morison could switch back to a 3-4-2-1 system this weekend with Isaak Davies and Ruben Colwill returning in behind Welsh international Kieffer Moore. Ryan Giles has returned to Wolves following his loan spell in South Wales, but Steve Morison is keen to bring the midfielder back to the club.
Bristol City fell victim to a rampant Cottagers attack last weekend as they were beaten 6-2 by a Fulham side who put seven goals past Reading prior to that result and six goals past Birmingham earlier this week. The Robins have lost three of their last four league games ahead of the visit of a similarly out-of-form Cardiff side. Cardiff travel to Ashton Gate looking to avenge a 1-0 home defeat against promotion contenders Blackburn. The Welsh side are winless in five league games and hold just a four-point buffer above the relegation during a January transfer window that could see them lose star man Kieffer Moore. 2:1
