Sheffield Wed vs Cardiff team news

Sheffield Wed

After struggling for the most of the season so far, Sheffield Wednesday have finally found good form and they've won three of their last five matches in Championship and two in a row ahead of their FA Cup duel with Cardiff. That being said, Sheff Wed are still in the relegation zone in the league, but at least now they are just 3 points behind the first team outside of it.

Meanwhile, Dominic Iorfa, Will Vaulks, Akin Famewo, and Callum Paterson are out with injuries.

Predicted LineupVasquez – Valentin, Bernard, Ihiekwe, James – Diaby, Byers – Gassama, Wilks, Fletcher – Smith

Cardiff

Having lost just once in their last four games in the league, Cardiff have been in solid form and they'll hope to show that in the FA Cup as well. When it comes to Championship, the Welsh club remains in pursuit of the playoffs since they are currently just three points behind the playoff zone. Meanwhile, their odds to lift the FA Cup are pretty high, as expected, but they are at least favourites to get to the next stage.

The team will once again miss injured Callum O'Dowda, Aaron Ramsey, and Karlan Grant.

Predicted LineupAlnwick – Ng, McGuinness, Panzo, Collins – Adams, Siopis, Wintle – Ugbo, Bowler, Robinson

Player to watch: Perry Ng

Despite playing at right back, Perry Ng has been one of Cardiff's key contributors on the offensive end so far. After all, he has 4 goals and 2 assists in Championship this season and Cardiff will once again rely on him to help them get a good result against Sheffield Wed.
