Cardiff City face a trip to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 18 out of 27 times.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in March 2008, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.

Crystal Palace see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola Championship, showing a record of 53 points from their 41 games played so far, Cardiff City's total of 67 points from their 40 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola Championship.
