Roy Keane is predicting Scunthorpe to provide a bigger test for his team this weekend than promotion chasing Cardiff.

Blues take on Nigel Adkins' side at Portman Road on Saturday looking for successive wins in the Championship for the first time this season but the Town boss is expecting a testing 90 minutes.

"Cardiff are a good side. They have goals in them but we played well against them on Tuesday and we need a similar display against Scunthorpe," Roy told the Club website.

"In many ways I expect Saturday to be the more difficult game. Scunthorpe are scrapping for their lives and have shown this season that they have a good togetherness and spirit in their squad.

"They caused us problems at their place a few weeks back and I was happy to come away with a point in the end.

"Nigel Adkins has done a great job there and it will a very difficult game for us but we are at home and we've got to look to follow on from Tuesday's performance and result."
