Cardiff City v Watford Live: Kick-off time, TV channel and score updates

Cardiff City host Watford in Championship action this evening.

Mark Hudson leads his side into the clash on the back of a morale-boosting win over Rotherham United last time out - a much-needed victory following the damaging 2-0 defeat to Swansea City in the South Wales derby.

The Hornets have a new man in the dugout in Slaven Bilic, who has overseen two wins in the past two games to get their promotion charge back on track. They should be one of the favourites to go straight back up, meaning tonight's meeting will be no easy task for the boys in blue.

Cardiff sit 17th ahead of tonight's game - only five points behind their opposition this evening - and a win would blow wind into their sails ahead of a trip to Sunderland on Saturday.
