The view from Cardiff: 'We've become a tough side to beat'

Neil Warnock’s team boosted their hopes of survival with a 2-0 win at Brighton and Hove Albion in midweek to move within two points of climbing out of the drop zone.

With Liverpool neck-and-neck with Manchester City at the top of the table, there will be plenty on the line for both clubs when they meet at Cardiff City Stadium.
