Cardiff pack their bags to visit Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having taken no points from 15 of the 22 contests.
The previous match played between the two at Selhurst Park was more than three years back, in August 2000, the Eagles carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League Cup match.
