TEAM NEWS
Wales striker Tom Lawrence makes his Cardiff debut after joining on loan from Leicester for the season.

Denmark Under-21 striker Kenneth Zohore, another recent loan signing, is on the bench and defender Lee Peltier is back from his one-match ban.

MK Dons' new signing Alex Revell's contract stipulates he cannot play against former club Cardiff so he must wait to make his debut.

Jay Emmanuel-Thomas will vie with fit-again Nicky Maynard for a forward spot.

MATCH FACTS
  • In four previous meetings each side has two victories, with both of Cardiff's wins coming in the League Cup in 2004/05 and 2008/09.
  • MK Dons have already beaten Cardiff twice this season, once in the league and once in the League Cup and both by a 2-1 scoreline.
  • Cardiff are unbeaten in 10 home league games (W6 D4) - only Sheffield Wednesday are on a current longer undefeated run (12).
  • Only Bolton (4) have picked up fewer points away from home than MK Dons this season (7).
  • After scoring just once in his previous 26 league appearances for Cardiff, Peter Whittingham scored a brace against Huddersfield last time out.
  • Three of Josh Murphy's four goals this season have come in MK Dons' last seven Championship games.

My mate George overheard big Russ talking to the team yesterday, tactics he thought...went a bit like this...and I paraphrase...."the Dons will play in all white...now all we got to do is imagine that Swansea are in town, and smash them 3-0! Simples pal! :emoticon-0103-cool:

You're not on your own ronny - Porthcawl is afloat. <ok>

Incidentally, just this minute watched Burgstaller live set up a cracking goal for a Nurenburg team mate at Munich 1860 - and the sun is out full blast over there. <doh>
 
Drizzling in Cheshire. peeeing down in Manchester though. Can you believe Drinkwater is the heartbeat of the Prem table toppers? And they've just taken the lead.

Down to Porth later today to take mam home after a visit (daughter was 21 last week - god I feel old!)

Driving back in the morning so I'm home to watch the Rugby.
 
Immers 'is a box to box attacking midfielder' so lets go 442 instead of 451witj Pilks up front and getting service. Ah well Noddy knows best.
