Crystal Palace boss Dougie Freedman will recall a host of his key players when they take a 1-0 lead to Cardiff for the Carling Cup semi-final second leg.


Goalkeeper Julian Speroni, skipper Paddy McCarthy, fellow defenders Anthony Gardner and Nathaniel Clyne, midfielders Mile Jedinak, Kagisho Dikgacoi and Darren Ambrose, winger Wilfried Zaha and strikers Glenn Murray and Chris Martin were all rested for Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Blackpool.

Wideman Sean Scannell also returns from suspension and left-back Dean Moxey has recovered from a knee injury, but on-loan right-back Mustapha Dumbuya is cup-tied.

The virus which disrupted Palace's preparations for the first leg has cleared up so midfielder Jonathan Williams is the only injury absentee as he continues his recovery from a broken leg.
