Cardiff City prepare to entertain Wolverhampton Wanderers at Ninian Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 7 of the 20 previous games, with the Bluebirds winning just 4.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ninian Park was just last season, in August 2005, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Championship match.
