TEAM NEWS: Richard Foster in for injured Greg Cunningham as Bristol City make one change at Cardiff
Bristol City head coach Sean O'Driscoll made an enforced change to his starting line-up for today's Severnside derby showdown against Cardiff City in the Welsh capital.
Republic of Ireland left-back Greg Cunningham missed out after suffering a muscle strain in training and his place was taken by Richard Foster.
Otherwise, the Robins started with the side that beat Nottingham Forest last time out.
New signing Brian Howard was named among the substitutes, while Albert Adomah was also kept back on the bench following his return from African Cup of Nations duty.
