City are in Portugal for a week of training and have two matches lined up. The first played on Wednesday evening in Fatima saw the Bluebirds come away with a 1 - 0 victory. As you can see from the line up below many subs were made as Dave Jones looks to get his players fit for the start of the season.
The only goal of the game came from trialist Maros Klimpl late in the match.
