Cardiff could make a change in goal for the visit of fellow Sky Bet Championship strugglers Leeds, live on Sky Sports 1 this Saturday from 12pm.

The inexperienced Ben Wilson has conceded six goals in successive defeats to Norwich and Preston, and Bluebirds boss Paul Trollope says he "has a decision" on whether to stick with the youngster, with new signings Ben Amos and Brian Murphy waiting in the wings.

Peter Whittingham has been a surprise omission for the last two matches and could return in midfield, but injured duo Joe Bennett and Stuart O'Keefe remain absent.

Trollope is mulling over whether to change his 5-3-2 formation with Cardiff having dropped into the bottom three in midweek and full-back Jazz Richards might be recalled.

Leeds skipper Liam Bridcutt hopes to shake off a foot injury in time to lead his side and Kemar Roofe is expected to return to contention.

Midfielder Bridcutt was forced out of the midweek win against Blackburn after taking a knock, while forward Roofe missed out due to a calf strain.
