Cardiff City will aim to end their EFL Championship campaign by keeping their unbeaten run intact when they welcome Rotherham United to the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday.
In stark contrast, the visitors have failed to taste victory in each of their last seven games and currently lie in the relegation zone.
Cardiff City made it two wins from two league games last time out when they cruised to a comfortable 4-0 win over Birmingham City.
Liverpool loanee Harry Wilson produced a stellar performance as he scored a hat-trick to hand the Bluebirds their 18th win of the season.
Mick McCarthy's men are now unbeaten in their last five games and this fine run has seen them move up to eighth place in the league table.
Meanwhile, Rotherham United played out an uneventful goalless draw in their last match against Luton Town.
The Millers have now failed to win in their last seven outings, with their last victory being a 3-1 home success over Queens Park Rangers in April.
They have picked up just two points out of a possible 14 since this win and this dire run has seen them fall into the relegation zone.
They are currently two points away from safety and will need a win to stand a chance of staying afloat.
