Huddersfield are the visitors today to the Cardiff City Stadium for the Bluebirds first League home game of the season. With the new stand, will we see a new record attendance at the stadium?
Cardiff boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been busy in the transfer market doing two deals in the last few days. Joining the club is Anthony Pilkington & Sean Morrison from Norwich City and Reading.
26-year-old Pilkington moved to South Wales after completing three seasons with Norwich, during his time with them he appeared 82 times for the Canaries in all competitions grabbing 15 goals. His signing will give options to the Cardiff boss out wide, an area his team is short on and in need of strengthening. It is unclear if he is in the squad for the game today or will be making a debut.

The Ireland international signed a three-year-deal with a reported fee around the £1m price tag.
Along with Pilkington, centre half Sean Morrison, as put pen to paper on a four-year-deal for an undisclosed fee with the Bluebirds for what is believe to be a seven-figure. The 6’4” 23-year-old defender could figure in the Huddersfield game.
Solskjaer will be looking for an improvement from the opening draw against Blackburn and he made wholesale changes for the mid-week League Cup game against Coventry. Back to normal today and he will have defender Juan Cala available after he returns from suspension he picked up last season against Sunderland. Out is striker Javi Guerra with a hip injury.
