ONES TO WATCH
SEAN MORRISON
The former Terrier joined Cardiff back in 2014 and has held firm in the defensive line-up ever since. Attaining City’s captaincy in 2016, the centre-back is both a pillar to the Bluebirds’ defence and a scoring threat. So far this season he’s made 26 appearances and bagged two goals.
LEE TOMLIN
Cardiff’s top goal scorer joined the Club in 2017 from Bournemouth and has made significant contributions to the Club as an attacking midfielder. The 31-year-old has seven goals and 25 appearances in the 2019/20 campaign so far, and signed a new two-and-a-half year contract last month.
JOE RALLS
Ralls climbed up Cardiff’s youth rankings and joined the First Team ahead of the 2011/12 season after graduating from the Club’s Academy. Ralls has played for all but one season ever since, becoming a key part of Cardiff’s midfield. He’s been hampered with injury this season, but not before he scored a hattrick against Birmingham in November 2019.
