Cardiff will be hoping to make it 3 wins from 3 tomorrow, as Northampton Town make the journey South to Ninian Park. Both clubs are unbeaten so far, Town with 2 draws from 2, but Lennie Lawrence is confident that Cardiff will keep up their impressive start to the season.

Northampton are expecting a difficult game tomorrow, Town boss, Kevin Broadhurst said:

Cardiff fans will think of Playoff defeats when Northampton Town is mentioned, after in 1996/7 play-off semi-finals, Northampton comfortably beat Cardiff 4-1 on agrregate runining City's dreams of promotion.

The last time the two teams met was in March last season, when the Bluebirds won a scrappy 2-1 battle at the Sixfields Stadium, Maxwell and Campbell were on the scoresheet for the Bluebirds, in what was Lennie Lawrence's third game in charge of Cardiff.

Lawrence hopes to name an unchanged line-up tomorrow from the one which beat Port Vale last Tuesday. Leo Fortune-West and Andy Legg will both keep their places after impressive starts to the season.

36 year-old, Legg is determined to keep his place in the midfield for the whole season, and after his performance against Vale, Lawrence had no choice but to leave the veteran in the starting line-up.

Fortune-West has also raised a few eye-brows after his start to the season, and is keeping Welsh international, Robert Earnshaw out of the starting XI.

Welsh International, Paul Trollope signed for the Cobblers from Coventry City on a free-transfer and is looking to be an excellent signing by Town boss, Broadhurst.

Trollope has 5 Welsh caps to his name and hopes he can still be considered by Hughes for the Welsh squad. The midfielder has also had a busy club career, playing for Derby County, Crystal Palace, Swindon Town, Torquay United, Grimsby Town, Fulham and Coventry City.

A big crowd is expected tomorrow, and fans who have not yet booked tickets are urged to arrive early to avoid any dissapointments. Club Membership is needed for the Grandstand Section A and the Lower Grandstand. The Cardiff City ticket-office is open from 9am tomorrow morning.

To conclude, after a great start from the Bluebirds, I can’t see us slipping up tomorrow. Northampton have played some good football so far this season, but seem aware of Cardiff's strengths and I think we will come away with another 3 points tomorrow.
