Craig Bellamy waits to be thrown to the Lions

Craig Bellamy is likely to start on the bench for Cardiff against Millwall at The Den tonight.

The Wales international, 33, returned from injury with a goal at the weekend and is in the squad to face the Lions but Cardiff manager Malky Mackay said: “His body needs to be managed in terms of the games we play him.

“He’ll be part of the squad but we’ve got to be cautious.”
