Cardiff face Brentford today at the CCS


So looking forward to League Footballs return as the meaningless international break and Cardiff City begin their push for promotion with mid-table Brentford. A win and three point goes without saying is a must after the 2-1 defeat at Bristol City that saw them go just a point behind the Bluebirds in fourth.

Cardiff boss Neil Warlock could give a debut to free-signing Defender Rolf Feltscher for this game after impressing while training with the Bluebirds and earning himself a short-term contract.

After missing the last two game Joe Bennett is poised to make his return so in contention for Cardiff for today’s game. Kenneth Zohore is still have treatment (ankle) at could leave Danny Ward leading the attack with fellow striker Omar Bogle starts a three-game ban after being sent off at Bristol City. Also suspended Lee Peltier will miss the game.

Along with Joe Bennett midfielder, Aron Gunnarsson could be back in contention after a five-week absence. All at Cardiff would welcome it.

The corresponding fixture last season saw a 2-1 win for Cardiff and the return game at Brentford ending all square with a 2-2 draw. Over the last five games Brentford, have impressive stats, winning four of the five games and drawing the other much better an Cardiff with just two wins. In fact, the visitors are unbeaten in nine games after their poor start to the season and will surely push Cardiff undefeated home record this season so far.

No pushover here, looks like Warnock’s men will have to step their game up after Bristol City and with the man himself rating Brentford currently the best team in the league.
