    12.30 KO

    Bristol City hit the road on Saturday afternoon to take on their Severnside rivals in the Welsh capital (12:30pm).

    Nigel Pearson’s squad have had to quickly switch their attentions back to the Sky Bet Championship following their midweek exit from the Emirates FA Cup at the hands of Manchester City.

    Some would argue it’s the perfect fixture to follow Tuesday’s loss to the Citizens as the Robins set their sights on completing the double over the Bluebirds for the second successive season.

    Although City’s 12-game unbeaten run has ended, they do have the opportunity to go 10 unbeaten in the league at the Cardiff City Stadium.

    We SHOULD win this on current form and performance - plus their top scorer is out (Robinson?) and a couple of their other key players.
    However it’s a local (international) Derby and form goes out of the window.
    My heart says 3-0 to the Robins but my head says a scrappy, ugly 1-1 draw with quite a few cards.

    Our sheep-worrying pals have their own match day thread going on - hopefully much wailing and grinding of teeth will be evident over there after our 3rd goes in… we need to pay them back for the 6-0 drubbing they dealt us during COVID.

    However I still think the scrappy draw is more likely….

    only Norwich can penetrate top 6 this weekend [ today ] WBA since I pointed out were in 6th on 44 points after 29 games are now only on 48 with us 44 and a game in hand. We were on 36pts, so if they lose 3, & we win 3 we would be higher than them! but 5 games later we have failed to capitalise ...come on you Redzzzzzzzzzz time to keep the BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ going....

    Doesn’t look a very big crowd for a local derby? A LOT of empty seats in the Cardiff stands
