Town boss Mick McCarthy has handed David McGoldrick and Aaron Mclean their full Blues debuts at Cardiff today. Luke Hyam is in for Nigel Reo-Coker in midfield with Scott Loach in goal for the injured Stephen Henderson, the Town manager making four changes from the team which lost to Brighton in their last league game on New Year’s Day.

This week’s new signing Frank Nouble is on the bench, alongside Patrick Kisnorbo and ex-Cardiff man Michael Chopra.

There is no place on the bench for Reo-Coker, whose short-term deal with the Blues is up after today's game. Full match preview here.

Cardiff: Marshall, Taylor, Hudson (c), Turner, Connolly, Noone, Whittingham, Gunnarsson, Conway, Gestede, Bellamy. Subs: Lewis, McNaughton, Cowie, Smith, Kim, Mason, Helguson.

Town: Loach, Orr, Chambers, Smith, Cresswell, Edwards (c), Hyam, N'Daw, Martin, Mclean, McGoldrick. Subs: Lee-Barrett, Hewitt, Kisnorbo, Drury, Murphy, Chopra, Nouble.

Stato added 15:50 - Jan 12 For me that was an impressive first half from N'Daw. Good to see Mick has done his homework on Noone.

jas0999 added 16:01 - Jan 12 Decent first half. But can we hang on for a point? Think we have seen the end of NRC - which would be good news. I like JET, but he is either excellent or abysmal. Sadly too many of the latter showings recently and not a MM type of player. Can see a loan move happening soon. COYB's!

Stato added 16:56 - Jan 12 Loach didn't have a single save to make all game. Very good all round performance from us. No stars but no duffers either. Happy days and well done Mick and the boys
