Nesta Guinness-Walker is replaced by Nelson Abbey.

Callum Robinson has been allowed to hobble back on, surprisingly.

The substitutes for Cardiff have made a difference. They've now put two up top, there's more space in the team, two wingers, Sheyi Ojo on the left Jaden Philogene on the right, they've been brilliant especially Ojo.

Excellent cross from Jaden Philogene that just evades Callum Robinson.

Robinson seemed to injure himself stretching for the cross, he immediately gave a sign to the bench.

Looks like a hamstring issue.

Added to a possible calf problem for Callum O'Dowda and this is a costly night for Cardiff irrespective of the result.

Connor Wickham has been dropping into little holes which has forced Callum Robinson to make runs behind but he's got to stay high now, one of them has to stay high, if both play their game and keep dropping in then the backline of Reading will squeeze higher.

Jaden Philogene with another lovely run, but his cross is cut out.

Philogene has really impressed tonight in this new role.

The crossbar rattles again!

Sheyi Ojo's shot deflects onto the bar.

Cardiff really pushing now.

Mamadou Loum gets his almost obligatory yellow card for a foul on Connor Wickham.

11th yellow of the season.

Best chance of the half there from the Bluebirds!

Lovely play from Cardiff.

So often this season they have been poor in front of goal, but that was just unlucky.

A super effort from Callum Robninson.

So close!

Callum Robinson sets and shoots from the edge of the penalty area and he thinks he's scored, but the ball smashes the upright.

Connor Wickham turns sharply and fires at goal, but Joe Lumley watches it carefully and gathers.

Wickham looks lively.

Sheyi Ojo is a little bit different to Callum O'Dowda.

At times you see him and think there's a player in there and sometimes he frustrates you but certainly Cardiff need him this evening to show the good side of his game.

Joe Ralls replaces Kion Etete.

Callum Robinson moves further forward.

Andy Carroll looks to attack a corner but his header is over and he lands a little awkwardly.

He's back up though.

I can't see Reading changing too much with how they are playing, ball up to Andy Carroll, get it around, look for the second ball.

Nearly that mistake!

Ryan Allsop misses his kick completely and Yakou Meite almost takes full advantage but the ball goes wide.

Callum O'Dowda leaves the field limping and Sheyi Ojo replaces him.

Paul Ince brings on his son, Tom, for Tyrese Fornah.

Ince, as discussed earlier, was the difference in the game between the sides in August.

One mistake, one moment of magic, one set-piece, one goal will probably win this game.

Really hard to call which way this game is going to go.

Jaden Philogene's cross is dangerous and Naby Sarr deflects the ball towards his own goal, but Joe Lumley saves.
