Cardiff City v Blackburn Rovers.
Saturday April 10th, ko 3:00pm.
“Tony Mowbray's side will be a good footballing team, there's no doubt about that,” says Mick McCarthy.
"They've got pace up front and Tony's teams will always get the ball down and pass it through the lines, so it will be an interesting game."
How will you bounce back from last Monday?
"You'll learn about the reaction though. The only way you can get back to it is by doing what we did previously. That was that we all worked damned hard individually and for each other and we were a real good team.
"That's what we want to continue to be. Individually we're not going to win games but collectively, as we've proven, we can be a good side.”
