Sports Mole previews Saturday's Championship clash between Cardiff City and Peterborough United.

Cardiff City will look to pull further clear at the top of the Championship with a win over bottom side Peterborough United.

The Bluebirds also top the form table having won five of their previous six games since narrowly losing a nine-goal thriller at Charlton Athletic at the start of November.

Club captain Mark Hudson will miss the game through suspension, and the armband will be given to Peter Whittingham in his absence.

Otherwise, Malky Mackay will have a full compliment to choose from, as Tommy Smith returns from a hamstring injury.

Meanwhile, Darren Ferguson is not expected to make wholesale changes to the side that lost 3-2 to Middlesbrough last week.

Recent form

Cardiff: WWWDWW

Peterborough: LLDLLL

Possible lineups

Cardiff: Marshall; Taylor, Turner, McNaughton, Connolly; Cowie, Whittingham, Conway, Noone; Bellamy, Helguson

Peterborough: Olejnik; Little, Zakuani, Knight-Percival, Rowe; Newell, Bostwick, Thorne, Boyd; Gayle, Tomlin

Sports Mole says: 3-0
