On loan duo Jamie Ward and Armand Traore are ineligible to play against their parent club.<br /><br />Joe Ralls and Jazz Richards are both nearing full fitness but may have to wait until Tuesday's trip to Derby to be involved.<br /><br />Forest could include striker Daryl Murphy after a month out with a calf problem. But goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon is a doubt after missing a few days of training through what has been described as a "personal issue", and Greek youngster Stefanos Kapino is standing by to make his debut.<br /><br />Joe Worrall (knee) and David Vaughan (ankle) are definitely out. Lee Tomlin, who joined Forest on loan from Cardiff in January, is unable to play against his parent club.<br /><br /><strong>Opta stats</strong><br /><br />Cardiff have won seven of their last eight league matches against Forest, drawing the other.<br /><br />Nottingham Forest have only picked up one point from their last five league visits to Cardiff (W0 D1 L4) since a 2-0 win in November 2010.<br /><br />Nottingham Forest have conceded a league-high 24 goals via set-pieces (inc. penalties) this season - 12 of which have come from corners, another division-most.<br /><br />Junior Hoilett has provided 11 assists in league competition this season, as many as he made in his previous four campaigns combined (122 apps, incl. play-offs).<br /><br />Cardiff's victory over Norwich last time out was their 25th in the Championship this season - their joint-most wins in a single season in the second tier alongside 2012-13 (a season in which they won the title).<br /><br />Forest have failed to score in 18 different league games this season - only Birmingham and Burton (both 20) have done so more often.<br /><br /><strong>Match officials</strong><br /><br />Referee: PETER BANKES<br />Assistants: Daniel Leach and Timothy Wood<br />Fourth Official: Andy Woolmer</p>

Was just going to say it's all about set plays, then Cardiff score from a corner.

Same for me. Tried firstrowsports.eu and managed to get a bein sports stream after about 25 mins. Just time enough to get a beer and see Morrison score. Just screamed in an airport lounge and got some obviously bemused American glances

A slow start, but a typical Cardiff performance, forest have looked good, but can’t finish, one was a sitter

We’re watching on crictv
Good stream and no buffering

Re: CARDIFF CITY v NOTTINGHAM FOREST. Match thread
I found a stream elsewhere. I think I'm watching SKY. The commentator called our stadium the City of Cardiff Stadium, then said that Tan planned on changing our home strip to red but a fan protest prevented it.
I think we're playing reasonably well in midfield. Defence looks shaky and we need more from Junior and NML.
And the goal alert popped on my phone before the corner was taken. Oh well.

I’d get Madine on. Zohore isnt winning nothing in the air. An area we are dominating generally.
