Port Vale team news

Key players such as right-back Jordan Gabriel and captain Ben Garrity are both unavailable due to injury concerns. Wing-back Jaheim Headley is suspended following his red card in the Rotherham loss.

Goalkeeper Ben Amos is sidelined with a muscle issue, so Marko Marosi will start in goal. 

Cardiff City team news

Perry Ng remains sidelined due to injury, and Alex Robertson is questionable after missing the Peterborough win.

On a positive note, captain Calum Chambers will be back in the starting lineup after serving his one-match ban from his dismissal on the final day of the 2024-25 season.

Regarding David Turnbull, he missed the league opener due to internal disciplinary action. It is still uncertain whether he will be included here.
