  • 10' Derby County FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 15' The 36-year-old Junior Hoilett has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

  • 35' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Cardiff City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 40' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Max Lowe suffering a number of foals already.
  • 45' It’s high time Neil Harris made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

  • 62' That is a Yellow card for Cardiff City FC. Junior Hoilett will be fuming at that decision.
  • 67' It looks like no one’s ball. Cardiff City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 68' Another substitution for Derby County FC to replace Max Lowe by Jayden Bogle on 68 minute.
  • 70' Cardiff City FC ring the changes. Lee Tomlin has done his job and it is now time for Will Vaulks to step up.
