Swansea City - Cardiff City betting tips and odds

Swansea City might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Cardiff City are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

At 3.75 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive Cardiff are well aware of it themselves.

Swansea supporters at the Liberty Stadium were treated to a rousing game in the team’s previous Championship showdown. The odds were initially in their favour – if only slightly – but they ended up being behind at halftime. However, they regrouped for the game’s later stages, taking the bout 3:2.

The Bluebirds’s defeat in the previous round was somewhat expected, given the 3.50 odds top online bookies offered for their away win. The favourites, Queens Park Rangers, took the lead early and dominated the game, ultimately winning 3:0.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Cardiff City tend to play rather passively even at home. For instance, they are heading into the Sunday game after two home games that featured fewer than 2 goals on both sides.

The favourable betting odds for the home side shouldn’t be a surprise if you kept up with the previous season. The Swans wrestled away several decisive victories in a row, and they likely won’t have any issues repeating the successes this year.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 2.35, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
