CARDIFF V WOLVES BIG-MATCH GUIDE

When? Tonight, 7.45pm kick off Odds: Wolves win 6/4, Cardiff win 11/5, Draw 11/5 Key men Bluebirds AFTER a quiet night against Sheffield United, Cardiff will be hoping Junior Hoilett can return to the vintage form he’s shown all season on Friday night. The Canadian, along with Kenneth Zohore and Nathaniel MendezLaing, terrorised Wolves’ defence when the Bluebirds won 2-1 at Molineux earlier in the season. He will be cutting in off the left flank to worry Wolves’ back three again. Wolves WOLVES will be mightily relieved to have midfield maestro Ruben Neves back in their ranks for this one as he returns from suspension. The Portuguese pass master has been a revelation since signing from Porto and is among the nominees for Championship player of the season. Cardiff will be wary of his genius passing range. What the managers have said Neil Warnock: “It’s a fantastic game. We should be on for a very good crowd, if not a record crowd and Friday night on TV. It’s good for Wolves too. We’ve had a dig at some of the money they’ve spent but they’ve had a rough time and all credit to them. We played them once and did quite well against them but I think it’ll be a cracking game, me. Nuno: “Congratulations (to Warnock for winning the manager of the season award). It doesn’t change, the game is the players, not the managers. We are here to help. “I don’t work for prizes, I work to build a team and try to make Wolves a good club able to compete on all the pitches against all the teams, I don’t work for individual prizes.” Predicted teams Cardiff City XI (4-3-3): Etheridge; Manga, Morrison (capt.), Bamba, Bennett; Gunnarsson, Grujic, Paterson; Mendez-Laing, Hoilett, Zohore. Wolves XI (3-4-3): Ruddy; Bennett, Coady (capt.), Boly; Doherty, Saiss, Neves, Douglas; Costa, Jota, Afobe. Referee: Mike Dean (Wirral)
