BELLAMY STARTS IN ATTACKING SHAPE

Craig Bellamy lines-up for Cardiff City against Blackpool on Saturday in an attacking starting-eleven.

Heidar Helguson joins Bellamy in attack, with Craig Noone recalled to a midfield that includes Tommy Smith, Peter Whittingham and Aron Gunnarsson. Jordon Mutch is yet to shake off a foot injury.

There are no changes to the back five, with Matt Connolly holding his place in the heart of defence despite the return to fitness of Ben Turner.

In other news, there is no place in Blackpool's match-day squad for Tom Ince, with the visitors making seven changes to the side that lost to Huddersfield on Monday.

Cardiff City side to face Blackpool: Marshall, McNaughton, Taylor, Hudson (c), Connolly, Whittingham, Gunnarsson, Smith, Noone, Bellamy, Helguson. Subs: Lewis, Kiss, Turner, Cowie, Velikonja, Kim, Mason.
