The South Wales derby between Cardiff City and Swansea City is set to take place in the Championship at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday.

Team news & squads
Cardiff team news
Aaron Ramsey was taken off early in the second half of the friendly between Wales and Latvia on Monday, but Bulut would be hopeful that the box-to-box midfielder is fit for Saturday's game.
The Welsh international could be joined by Ike Ugbo, who may be preferred over Ollie Tanner on the right wing, with the rest of the squad expected to remain unchanged from the Ipswich loss.
Cardiff possible XI: Runarsson; Ng, Goutas, McGuinness, Collins; Siopis, Ralls; Ugbo, Ramsey, Grant; Meite.

Swansea team news
On the other hand, Swansea boss Michael Duff may also resist the temptation of making too many changes despite the latest loss against Bristol City.
However, Duff is likely to recall Joe Allen ahead of Oliver Cooper in midfield, with Harry Darling expected to replace Kyle Naughton at the back, while Harrison Ashby continues as the right full-back.
Swansea possible XI: Rushworth; Cabango, Darling, Wood; Ashby, Patino, Grimes, Allen, Key; Cullen, Yates.
