Cardiff were involved in the relegation conversation in the first half of last season after Mick McCarthy's reign at the club came to an end, and the Bluebirds will be hoping to sustain a push for the top half this time around.

Kipre will be playing alongside a different partner in his next outing, as Perry Ng was sent off picking up two yellows on the opening day.

The Verdict

 

 

Cardiff travel to Reading next weekend, in aiming to make it two wins from two to begin the campaign.

The Royals have been tipped to struggle by many and they were beaten 1-0 away to Blackpool in their first outing on Saturday.

The top of the pitch remains something of a concern heading into the final few weeks of the transfer window, as Max Watters led the line against Norwich.

Morison has an array of attacking options in the form of Rubin Colwill, Isaak Davies and Mark Harris, but it does feel like the Bluebirds could do with another out-and-out number nine.

Jordan Hugill and Uche Ikpeazu came in on loan to good effect last term, and it will be interesting to monitor who they target.
