Morrison in Cardiff frame
Ravel Morrison has a slim chance of featuring for Cardiff when they welcome Ipswich.
The West Ham loanee, who missed Slade's first match in charge against Nottingham Forest on Saturday, opened up ligaments in his knee and he has also been suffering from a virus meaning he has just an outside chance of lining up against the Tractor Boys.
That 2-1 win over Forest came despite some late pre-match chances. Fabio was taken ill during the warm-up while fellow left-back Declan John felt a hamstring problem as he warmed up during the match and the pair will be assessed before kick-off.
Slade is optimistic that Federico Macheda, who left the pitch with cramp, will be available but Tom Adeyemi's hamstring, which forced his withdrawal, looks likely to rule him out.
Ipswich expect striker Daryl Murphy, defender Luke Chambers and midfielder Teddy Bishop to be available.
Murphy missed Saturday's 1-1 draw at home to 10-man Blackburn with a sore Achilles while captain Chambers and Bishop were ill.
However, all three trained on Monday and boss Mick McCarthy anticipates being able to call on the trio.
But Town will monitor defenders Jonathan Parr and Tyrone Mings (ankle) with only midfielder Luke Hyam (hip) definitely sidelined.
