Statements - Omer Riza (Cardiff City Coach)

"We took a difficult result away from Millwall, and if we continue to do the things we are working on, we will continue to improve."

"Between the quality of the players and the way we are organized to cause problems for the opposition, we are confident we can make progress."

"It's an important game against Bristol City. They've been a bit hot and cold this season, but they can hurt us if we don't get things right. On the other hand, we can hurt them. We go into the game with certain expectations, but at the same time we're going to take it to them."

"I know how important derbies are, and I think against Swansea we played a good game and could have won. We're going to approach it with a lot of energy and intensity, not letting the opposition play if we can, and applying our style on them."

"All matches are important. Points are important and victories are important. Apart from getting wins, nothing is too important".

Statements - Liam Manning (Bristol City Coach)

"A tough game. It's the margins, you just have to look at the results of the week and nobody would predict them because of how tight the division is and whether it's luck or good processes or consistently good work or bad referee decisions or whatever."

"You need everything to go your way on the weekend and you have to do everything you can to make it happen. I know it's a bit of a unique game because it's not a normal Championship game, there's something else for us and for the fans. They will be the same, they will be hyped up."

"The minimum is that, from the beginning of the game, we are willing to fight, to out-run them, to outplay them and play the way we want to play. To be honest, I think that gets lost in most games. Of course, this weekend, being a derby, it has a natural bonus."

"If you look at Portsmouth, they had a bad game and conceded six goals. If we look at the numbers and go by the numbers, we can be wrong. We'll make sure we're prepared, we'll make sure we're fired up and we'll show them the respect they deserve on the weekend, of course, in preparation and planning, but we want to make it really difficult for the teams that come after us."
