Min 0: Villa opens up with a 4-4-2 N while the Saints will play a 4-3-3 N.
Min 0: Today's referee is Calum Murray (STRONG/STRICT).
Min 2: Elye Wahi and Ben Clark weave a neat interchange...
        ...which sees the American scamper clear...
        ...he outpaces the Villa defense and lifts a classy ball high but Martinez gets a hand to it!
Min 4: Villa give the ball away in midfield...
        ...Asier Villalibre (TNS) takes over for Cardiff...
        ...he drives inside and slips the ball through the defense for Elye Wahi...
        ...the Ivorian evades a challenge...
        ...and hammers the ball past just wide!
Min 6: Gordon Cowans (HLR) swings a ball in to the Cardiff box...
        ...but the presence of Matthew Olosunde (TNS) means it is easily cleared.
Min 7: Matthew Olosunde (TNS) nods the ball down for Mark Bosnich on the edge of the box...
        ...Mark Bosnich takes a heavy touch into the box...
        ...and Martinez rushes of his line...
        ...Mark Bosnich gets there first...
        ...and he chips the ball over Martinez...
        ...but Martinez just gets a fingertip to it to knock it out of danger.
Min 16: Ben Clark finds some space in the middle of the pitch...
        ...hits an audacious 30-yard shot...
        ...Martinez palms the shot onto the bar...
        ...it spins back to Sergej Savic who heads the ball...
        ...but Alan Macinally (HLR) is there to knock it out of danger.
Min 32: Ollie Watkins (HLR) lays the ball off for Gordon Cowans around the D...
        ...he looks to bend one into the top corner...
        ...and gets it horribly wrong and horribly wide. 
Min 36: The ball comes in to the area from Matthew Olosunde...
        ...he rattles it off Martinez...
        ...Dusan Vlahovic (TNS) tries his best to miss and does!
Min 43: Dusan Vlahovic volleys a powerful shot from the right...
        ...Martinez gets a touch but can't stop it...
        ...but his touch causes it to drift out of danger.
Min 45: Sergej Savic (TNS) picks up the loose ball...
        ...and somehow he puts it over the bar from about 8-yards out. He should have scored. 
Min 45: Maxine Esteve  on for Mark Bosnich(DF)...
        ...Maxine Esteve  will play DF.
Min 45: Ibrahim Sadiq on for Asier Villalibre(FW)...
        ...Ibrahim Sadiq will play FW.
Min 45: Sion Bradley on for Danny Davies(DF)...
        ...Sion Bradley will play DF.


HALFTIME SCORE: Villa 0 - Cardiff 0

Min 47: Cardiff break quickly with Sergej Savic...
        ...he only has Martinez to beat...
        ...great save by Martinez but the ball falls to Ibrahim Sadiq...
        ...whose shot is smothered by the recovering Martinez.
Min 50: Frank Trainer (HLR) reads Vincent Company's intentions perfectly...
        ...as he beats the offside trap...
        ...and races onto the ball...
        ...firing an unstoppable effort that arcs inches over the crossbar.
Min 51: Great tackle by Alan Macinally (HLR)...
        ...to prevent Ben Clark (TNS) from latching onto Dusan Vlahovic's pass. 
Min 59: Vincent Company (HLR) and Ollie Watkins break for Villa...
        ...Ollie Watkins looks to have found space into which to recieve Vincent Company's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Matthew Olosunde (TNS) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 76: Cheeky back heel from Sion Bradley to release Ben Clark in the box...
        ...but the American is correctly ruled to have been off-side. 
Min 86: Ben Clark (TNS) passes a great ball to Sergej Savic...
        ...whose low shot across goal is parried by Reds keeper Martinez...
        ...who then falls on it for the save.
Min 87: Ibrahim Sadiq (TNS) puts the ball in the box from the left...
        ...and a half clearence falls to Ben Clark at the back post...
        ...the American makes a hash of his volley and the chance is wasted.
