Last night's 2 - 2 draw between Watford and Crystal Palace have given City a great chance to elimate both sides as potential dangers in the race for promotion.
City have a 10 point gap over Watford and an eleven point advantage on Palace but the Bluebirds have played two games less than both teams.
Today its the turn for Cardiff, Leicester and Hull to take advantage.
Table before today's games kick off.
