Anything other than a Crewe win is a huge bonus. A draw would mean both sides lose 2 points and City could go second on Wednesday night with victory at Peterborough. We have a four point gap over Bristol City, if they beat Crewe then we can keep them 4 points behind by beating Peterborough.
I just wonder if the draw would be the better result, we could then push 6 points ahead of Bristol on Wednesday night and be in second place ahead of Crewe.
Whatever happens Cardiff have to win at London Rd. Any favours the others do will be a bonus.
