Sadly , I see this being a much tougher game than some envisage - 1-1 draw.

I fancied this as a fairly uninspiring 1-0 win for some time. Bit similar to reading and west ham games from last season.

We really need gabby fit for this one and of course Delph. Really don't want to see 532 again.

Think I'd go

Guzan - Lowton vlaar Clark baker / Bennett - bacuna Westwood Delph Tonev - gabby - benteke

We need a plan for hassling medel, which could see KEA come into midfield. And we need to be really strong at set pieces. But would be nice to see Tonev begin to show he can contribute

Can't see many goals in this one and do think it could go either way.

We really need to win this one. Not because we'll be relegated or anything if we don't but the season has gone stale and there's a two week break after this (longer as the WBA game isn't until the Monday) so it would be good to go into long gap with a win. Looking at who some of the other teams are playing above us there's a very good chance a win will put us back in the top 10.

I expect Cardiff to stay up, they've been pretty solid defensively but don't seem to create much from open play as we've seen them score a few corners this season so good test for our back 4 in this game.

Would be lovely to think this is a game where we'll get a nice routine 2 or 3-0 win but think we'll scrap out a 2-1 win, Benteke it's fair to say is due a goal. Someone random like Delph with our other goal.

I always click "Aston Villa Win" on the pre-match poll out of pride in the Lion, but on the basis that we rarely do I've gone for a draw instead.

It might work.
