Cardiff City - Derby County predictions

Though we can call Cardiff City the favourites in this matchup, Derby County are not about to make it easy for them. It’s gearing up to be an exciting match overall, and no outcome can be ruled out at this point.

At 3.64 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive The Rams are well aware of it themselves.

Cardiff head into the Saturday fixture with their head held high following a Millwall away draw. They were not expected to come out with anything from their previous Championship game so this point will be a big morale booster for them.

The Rams’s latest Championship performance against Sunderland can’t be called bad, all things considered. Although Derby were the home team, their opponents were much stronger and took home a narrow 0:1 win after taking the lead in the first half.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from Cardiff City and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

The Rams can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

The last time we saw these two squads play against each other was earlier in this Championship season. Cardiff City narrowly lost. With the home-field advantage on their side this time, however, most bookies see them as the favourites.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.
