A bit harsh but its football and we need the three points more than Crystal Palace.
There are no reports of any major injury problems for the Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Right-back Fabio de Silva who limped off in the 3-3 draw at West Brom last weekend is the only doubt. On the plus side, Craig Noone is fully fit having missed the last two matches and is in contention for the Palace game. His opposite number at Palace Tony Pulis is expecting striker Marouane Chamakh to return with only absentee for the trip to Cardiff being Dwight Gayle.
Only five points separate Cardiff City and Crystal Palace ahead of the relegation-threatened battle. A win for Cardiff would draw Palace right back into the relegation dogfight. If the unthinkable were to happen, a Cardiff defeat, the gap would extend to eight, pushing the Londoners closer to survival. It is being reliably reported that 36, 37 points could be the line drawn in the sand for survival and Premier League football next season.
Cardiff have six games left mean Cardiff need to win at least three of their remaining games, possible four if results go against them. Squeaky bum time for any Cardiff fan.
The ONLY games that matter this weekend,
- Hull v Swansea (a draw would be a good result for the Bluebirds)
- Norwich v West Brom (again, a draw would a suit Cardiff)
- Cardiff City v Crystal Palace (Only one result will do)
- Aston Villa V Fulham (home win)
- Tottenham v Sunderland (home win)
The idea out come from this weekend game
Swansea 33 34Hull 33 34
Norwich 33 33
C Palace 32 31
West Brom 32 30
Cardiff 33 29
Sunderland 31 25
Fulham 33 24
