Derby County beat Cardiff City by three goals to one, and Paul Parry's equaliser was not enough to give the Welsh team any consolation in a game which saw Michael Chopra injured with a damaged hamstring. Cardiff boss Dave Jones said after the game - "I think it will be between Birmingham, Sunderland, Derby and West Brom for the top two positions, but I can't pick them. We needed to win today to give ourselves a chance - to put ourselves four points behind Derby. But 10 points is a lot at this stage of the season with so few games left so we'll probably be fighting for that play-off spot."

CardiffCity: Alexander, Gunter, Johnson, McNaughton, Ledley, Parry, McPhail, Walton, Whittingham, Thompson, Chopra (Byrne 35), Byrne (Green 78).
Subs Not Used: Forde, Purse, Blake.

Goals: Parry 32.

Att: 27,689.
