Cardiff have the chance to close the gap on leaders Wolves to three points tonight at CCS in one of the biggest games the team has faced for a long time.
City start the day in second place six points behind the leaders and five points ahead of 3rd placed Fulham. It's the first game of a West Midlands double header with City gong to 4th placed Villa on Tuesday.
The game this evening at will see a record crowd for a Cardiff City game at CCS and the biggest in south Wales since Cardiff faced Hereford at Ninian Park in 1976 in front of over 35,000.
Victory would put pressure back on Fulham, who face Sheffield Wednesday tomorrow at Hillsborough, and Villa who are away at Norwich. A Wolves win would just about wrap up their promotion.
Joe Ralls and Matt Connolly could feature for Cardiff in the top-of-the-table Sky Bet Championship clash with Wolves on Friday night.
Midfielder Ralls hasn't played since February due to a hamstring injury, while Connolly has been out for a month and is edging closer to full fitness. Jazz Richards and Danny Ward remain sidelined.
Ruben Neves and Matt Doherty both return from their one-game bans and should come back into the line-up after Wolves drew 2-2 with Hull on Tuesday night.
Nuno could make some other changes to his side but otherwise has no fresh injury concerns.
