It’s a huge night in West Yorkshire as Cardiff City take on Huddersfield Town knowing promotion back to the Championship could be within touching distance.

The Bluebirds head to the Accu Stadium sitting second in League One and on the cusp of sealing an immediate return to the second tier.

Brian Barry-Murphy’s side know a win this evening would move them to 84 points and leave only Stockport County capable of catching them – with the outcome of the Hatters’ Wednesday night’s trip to AFC Wimbledon then potentially confirming promotion before the weekend.

Even without the mathematics being finalised tonight, Cardiff have the chance to take another giant step towards the finish line after a season packed with excitement, young talent and, lately, a few understandable nerves as the pressure has mounted.

Huddersfield, though, will be desperate to spoil the party on home soil, meaning it promises to be another tense and potentially defining night in the promotion race.

Kick-off is at 7.45pm and the match is live on Sky Sports+, but stick with us right here and we’ll bring you all the build-up, team news, live updates, analysis and reaction from a massive night for Cardiff City.
