CARDIFF CITY V LEEDS UNITED

What time is kick-off?

Cardiff City v Leeds United will kick-off at 12noon at Cardiff City Stadium tomorrow.

What’s the team news?

For the Bluebirds, Jazz Richards has been ruled out owing to a calf injury. Greg Cunningham resumed training this week, but it is thought this Sunday’s match will be too soon for him. Isaac Vassell is a long-term absentee.

Neil Harris kept his cards close to his chest in Thursday’s press conference, but alluded to a few ‘niggles’ within the squad, so don’t be surprised if one or two others miss out.

In more positive news, though, Lee Tomlin and Nathaniel Mendez-Laing are back from their lengthy lay-offs to provide a huge fitness boost for the Bluebirds.

Leeds United look set to be without both Pablo Hernandez and January signing Jean-Kevin Augustin, who has suffered a setback following an earlier hamstring injury.

Adam Forshaw, who underwent season-ending surgery in February, is still not available.

Kalvin Phillips missed Leeds’ last match back in March with a knock, but is now fit again. Kiko Casilla remains suspended for the next six matches.

What are the odds?

Cardiff City win: 4/1; Draw: 14/5;Leeds United: 4/6 (odds via The Pools).

Who is the referee?
