Cardiff are looking to secure 7th place in the Championship when the final round of matches are played tomorrow. City need to win to ensure they keep 7th place but could hold onto their position if Ipswich draw and City don't suffer a heavy defeat.
There is a titanic battle at The Riverside where Middlesbrough entertain Brighton. The winner of the game will be promoted but if it ends a draw then Middlesbrough will join Burnley in the Premier league next season.
The disappointed team who misses out will face Sheff Weds in the play oiffs. Derby and Hull will contest the other play off semi final.
The rest of the games are basically dead rubbers with clubs getting their final run out before hitting the beach.
I think after today's announcement that Russell Slade is stepping down as manager after the game he will get a very generous reception from the City fans.
All games kick off at 12:30pm.
