We are back under way in Cardiff. Can Manchester City add to their lead?

Or is an unlikely Bluebirds comeback on the cards?

It's been a classy performance so far from Manchester City but Bernardo Silva's header for their second is a minor miracle.

The neck muscles on the lad, I tell ya. You'll want to catch this one on Match of the Day tonight.

And that brings the first half to an end.

Manchester City have certainly shown their class but Cardiff City's wait for a first win on their Premier League return looks like it's going to have to wait a little longer.

Manchester City are absolutely bossing this match, now. A dull opening half an hour it might have been, but the reigning Premier League champions have really hit their stride.

Cardiff's defence try to keep them at bay but a barrage of shots from Ilkay Gundogan and Sergio Aguero as well as some tremendous solo work from Raheem Sterling to gallop through the box unopposed, sees the hosts put on the ropes.

For 20 minutes Cardiff competed and worked hard, but it was only a matter of time before City undid them.

A lovely goal for Sergio Aguero on his 300th appearance for City.

The striker also scored on his first appearance for the club - also against Welsh opposition: Swansea City in 2011.

Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has just missed a sitter.

He looked certain to score as his flick into the Cardiff City box is headed back into his path by Sean Morrison, but his follow-up volley from point blank range somehow goes over the bar.

How are City not 1-0 up?!

Manchester City - and most likely any neutrals watching - will be disappointed that the tempo of this match has dropped.

Cardiff, however, seem very content with the way things are going.

They've barely had a whiff of possession but they're defending in an organised and energetic fashion, and their fans are roaring their encouragement.

Kyle Walker puts a dipping cross into the box which evades everyone and forces Lee Peltier into a diving header to make sure the Manchester City man doesn't get on the scoresheet.

Soon after, Bruno Manga puts a vital clearance to stop Peltier scoring an own goal from a blocked Leroy Sane shot, as the ball narrowly sails over the crossbar.

To say the tempo of this game has calmed down is understating it a bit.

Whether it's the weather conditions or Manchester City trying to dominate possession, I'm not sure, but there's not a great deal going on.

Leroy Sane is adamant City should have been given a corner, but a goal kick is given. Television replays show he might have been right.

Cardiff are up for this and Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is looking suitable unimpressed on the sidelines.

Bobby Reid plays a useful ball towards Junior Hoilett before Fabian Delph hooks it away.

Good stuff from Neil Warnock's side.

First dangerous chance of this game and it goes to the visitors.

Sergio Aguero does tremendously well to work his way down the right wing before playing the ball to Ilkay Gundogan who forces Sean Morrison into conceding a corner at the far post.

The set piece that follows comes to nothing, but City keep possession.

This could have been embarrassing for Manchester City!

Aymeric Laporte tests visiting goalkeeper Ederson with a wayward backpass that he just about manages to volley downfield.

The Brazilian wasn't expecting that, but dealt with it well.

There's a cracking atmosphere at the Cardiff City Stadium despite the weather, with the home fans in fine voice.

As yet, nothing much for either side to cheer about, mind!

Manchester City are pressing in the early stages but as yet they've been unable to give Cardiff much to worry about.

Ilkay Gundogan launches a curling delivery into the box but it sails over the head of Raheem Sterling and out for a goal kick.

Didn't take long for the first shot of the game.

Leroy Sane tries his luck from an acute angle outside the box just 10 seconds into this match, but he fails to trouble Cardiff City goalkeeper Neil Etheridge who collects the ball with ease.

We are under way in the Welsh capital.
