    Cardiff 0-0 Huddersfield

    While the Cardiff City Stadium has not been a happy hunting ground for Huddersfield in recent years, it has been far from a fortress for Cardiff this season.

    The Bluebirds have only won two of their last 14 matches here and it is showing.

    Still very little in the way of attacking intent from either side as we cross the half hour mark.

    Much better play from Cardiff City - a lovely touch in and set up but Sawyers needed to get his over the ball a bit more.

    Cardiff need to break this midfield line.

    Cardiff have had a couple of efforts now, hopefully they can get some confidence from that.

    At the moment Huddersfield have a lot more to play for than Cardiff City so they are into this game but Cardiff are too relaxed at the moment.

    Romaine Sawyers is next to take aim for Cardiff after fantastic link up play between Sory Kaba and Jaden Philogene.

    However like Philogene's effort a moment ago, Sawyers' strike is way off target.

    It really is a flat atmosphere at the Cardiff City Stadium today, even the travelling fans have lost their voice in recent minutes.

    The game could really do with a spark.

    Philogene anticipated the ball really well and watched the defender but just snatched across it and sliced it high.

    He needs to get more involved in the game as he's such a good player.

    Jaden Philogene, arguably Cardiff's player of the season, fires a long-distance effort high and wide with the Bluebirds' first shot of the match.

    Danny Ward looks okay to continue, as Cardiff finally have control of the ball for longer than 30 seconds.

    Cardiff attacking players haven't been good enough at holding on to the ball.

    And speaking of Danny Ward he is the latest striker to need treatment.

    Both sets of fans exchange chants for the striker, who played for Cardiff from 2017 to 2020.

    Huddersfield are having all of the ball at the moment, most of which deep in the Cardiff half.

    As Gwennan has just eluded to though they do not create tonnes of opportunities from open play, and that has been the case so far today - minus the early Danny Ward strike.

    Huddersfield are a big team, they don't create a of a lot from open play, set pieces are going to be crucial for them.

    "Doo-doo-doo, football in a library," sing the Huddersfield fans.

    And if we turn from reading to Reading, I bet Royals fans aren't enjoying what they are seeing from Cardiff.

    Reading supporters badly need a Bluebirds win today and how flat they look will be worrying.

    Cardiff try to play out of the back as the cross comes to nothing but again invite unnecessary pressure as they lose the ball.

    The travelling crowd are loving the pressure their side is putting on the hosts right now.

    Sheyi Ojo leaves Jonathan Hogg a little bruised after a crunching tackle midway inside the Cardiff half which referee Michael Salisbury deems a foul.

    A good chance to deliver a cross for Huddersfield.

    I think the players will be looking at this game of the beginning of next season.

    There'll be players leaving the club but those players who are signed here for next season- this game a big deal.

    You're starting to build and if you're Lamouchi, you're looking at all of the players.

    Plus it's the last home game of the season so it'd be great to finish with a big win.

    It has been a strange few months for Sory Kaba.

    His eight goals have been crucial for Cardiff, including a spectacular overhead kick against Watford.

    At the same time the Midtjylland loanee has missed a penalty in both of the last two games.
