We have got to match Blackpools 3 points tonight or at least get a point
It's stating the obvious but another bad run could be our nemesis
Match Facts:
- Cardiff City have won just three of their last 22 league matches against West Bromwich Albion (D11 L8).
- West Brom won 4-0 away at Cardiff last season in the Championship, last winning consecutive league visits to the Bluebirds in October 1974.
- Cardiff have won their last two home league games, as many as they had won in their previous 14 combined (D5 L7).
- West Brom have lost their last four away matches in the Championship, conceding at least two goals in each defeat (9 in total).
- West Brom's John Swift has been involved in five goals in seven starts against Cardiff in the Championship, scoring three and assisting two.
Sadly without Kipre and by the looks of things Wickham, it will be a 1-0 defeat for us. Really can't see us getting anything out of the game without those two. Hopefully I am proved wrong though
Looking like it’s going to be a wet night, wrap up lads.
Wickham an injury doubt.
i hate playing wba... hope they not to strong for us, they are bound to turn it on...
at least a point... but wishing for more
Has there been an official reason for Wickham’s absence last Saturday? Obviously injured I presume but has the club said anything? Type of injury, length of time out? Apologies if they’d made a statement that I’ve missed.
When Sabri answered a press question on Wickham and Ralls it was one of those few occasions where. in a second language, he wasn't entirely clear. As Mr Soul said, WOL interpreted it as minor training injuries in the last session before the squad travelled, where their absence was partly precautionary. He said yesterday that Ralls should be available for West Brom, but Wicjkam was a doubt still. I think the problem for both of them was a minor strain - but not 100% sure.
will need a miracle to get even a point tonight.
Not too confident for tonight. I’d happily take a draw but I can see a loss. Thankfully they seem a hot or cold team. They’ve lost a few games recently you’d expect them to win so hopefully they don’t turn up tonight.
The minor blessing of Kipre’s absence is at least he’ll be fully fit for the much more important game on Saturday.
Wonder if it will be Simpson slotting in or a back four with Romeo back in.
Cardiff City XI: Allsop; Romeo, Ng, McGuinness, O'Dowda; Ojo, Wintle, Sawyers, Philogene; Etete, Davies.
Subs: Luthra, Sang, Ralls, Rinomhota, Colwill, Harris, Kaba.
Wow had a feeling he might go with a back four. I assumed an extra person in midfield be it Rino or Ralls or even both.
Very surprised to see Davies start, that’s come from no where
