Porto v Cardiff City Live: Kick-off time, team news and score updates

Cardiff City face off against European giants Porto in a mouthwatering pre-season friendly tonight.

The Bluebirds kicked off their Portuguese tour with a hard-fought 1-0 defeat to Braga on Wednesday night. Erol Bulut's side finished that game in the ascendency and the new manager will have been impressed by what he saw against stellar opposition.

New signing Karlan Grant was bright in midweek and could get some more minutes tonight, and the boss confirmed we will see Aaron Ramsey back in the blue shirt at some point against the team who finished as Portuguese top-flight runners-up last season.

With the season opener at Elland Road against Leeds United now just a fortnight away, we are likely to see a team selection from Bulut that is close to his strongest line-up.

We'll bring you live updates from Estádio Algarve this evening, with our man Glen Williams there with the latest news.

Kick-off is at 7pm.
