The remaining seven games in this round of matches take place on Saturday.
The two crucial games today see Watford at home to Burnley at 3:00pm and Crystal Palace at home to Birmingham at 5:30pm.
On Saturday Cardiff are at Peterborough (who are in the bottom three but a bogey team for the Bluebirds) while Hull are away at Huddersfield.
Promotion of course is in Cardiff's own hands and before this round of matches kick off City will guarantee promotion with 90 points. But any points dropped by the chasing teams will see City's points target drop.
I'll look at those totals later this eveing after Watford and Palace play their games. There is another full round of fixtures on Monday and Tuesday but we shall look at those on Sunday but as a heads up Cardiff play Blackburn on Monday before Hull and Watford face each other on Tuesday.
