Cardiff City TV caught up with Callum Robinson to preview our clash with Preston North End on Wednesday evening.
City return to Sky Bet Championship action, following the postponement of our fixture with Watford last time out.
“I’m looking forward to it," Callum began. "Obviously, we were disappointed that the last game on Saturday was postponed, but we’re all fresh and ready to go. Hopefully we can get back to winning ways at home. We went through a period of getting wins at home with the fans, so we need to get back on track.
“The lads did really well in our last game at Coventry. It was the third game in a week and away from home, so it was tough. We were unlucky not to get the win there, but that has gone now and we have to move on from it."
Wednesday's opponents, for whom Robinson played 160 games between 2014 and 2019, currently sit 17th in the second tier table.
Callum continued: “They’re a well-organised team, with a good manager as well. I know of him and he always has a good team. Where they are in the league, they don’t want to be there, like us, so it’s going to be a tough battle.
"They’ve got some good players, good quality and just a solid team. We’re going to have to bring our A-game to break down their defence, because I think they’ve got a solid defence as well. It’s going to be a tough one.
“I think there’s only a few familiar faces left. Most of the boys have moved on or retired so there’s a few left and I’m looking forward to playing them. I had some great times and great memories there."
The Bluebirds are set for a busy period of upcoming fixtures, with a trip to Stoke City to follow our midweek clash with North End.
“The game being off on Saturday has given us a little bit more rest, but especially with the period that’s coming up, it’s going to be busy," Callum added. "We were back in training on Sunday, so it’s about kicking on now with Wednesday, then a game again on Saturday, but we’re focused on getting that win first on Wednesday night.
"It has been good. Obviously, we’ve had a lot more sessions than we probably thought, because the game got cancelled, so we built up quite a bit last week, but we have built up again for this one. There’s been a lot of time on the training pitch, so now, for myself and the boys, we’re ready to go on Wednesday night.
“It’s going to be tough. There’s a lot of games and a quick turnover. We’re going to need the whole squad to push, because it’s time to pick up some points. Our start wasn’t good enough and we know that. We’ve picked up a little bit, but have dropped a few points over the last few weeks. We really need to give it a push over the Christmas period."
