Liam Manning and Omer Riza both have to contend with injuries ahead of Sunday’s Severnside Derby clash.
Bristol City hope to enter the international break with some bragging rights as they host Cardiff City in the Severnside Derby on Sunday, October 6.
The Robins played to a goalless draw with Sheffield Wednesday on Wednesday, and have one less day to rest than this weekend’s opponents. Cardiff claimed their first victory of the season, defeating Millwall 1-0 courtesy of a first-half Perry Ng goal, but they remain bottom on goal difference.
Last season, Cardiff claimed a league double over City. A 2-0 win in South Wales saw Nigel Pearson’s reign come to an end, and then in March, Perry Ng scored with a header in the second-half in Liam Manning’s first taste of the fixture.
