Ole Gunnar Solskjaer eyes historic Swansea City scalp

Cardiff boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer issues a rallying call to his troops to make history in today's derby with Swansea City.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has issued a rallying call to his Cardiff City troops to make history in Saturday's South Wales derby with Swansea City.

The Bluebirds can become the first team in the 102-year history of the fixture to record a season double over their local rivals, following the 1-0 victory earlier in the season under former manager Malky McKay.

The Norwegian told the club's official website: "We know that this is a chance to create history. That's something that is in the back of everyone's minds, I'm sure.

"That's what everyone dreams about - to play and beat their local rivals. That's especially the case for the local lads in the squad. We've had some tough games and we're looking forward to this one as well."

This evening's clash at the Liberty Stadium kicks off at 5.30pm.
