Cardiff City - Watford predictions

Kickoff starts at 20:45 on 14/01/2025 played @ Cardiff City Stadium refereed by Oliver Langford

While the scales seem somewhat tipped in the hosts’ favour, the win is anyone’s to take. Statistically speaking, all 3 outcomes to this match are quite possible, making reliable betting predictions hard to come by.

The visitors are well-aware of the task ahead. Beating Cardiff City is difficult under any circumstances and doing it on their own turf would be an even bigger achievement for Watford.

Cardiff are coming on the back of an away draw (2:2) in the previous round against Coventry City . The score was tied at both half-time and the final whistle, which isn’t too bad for Cardiff considering the 1.80 odds on them.

The away team’s failure to win their previous Championship matchup was not a welcome sight for their home supporters. Entering the match as clear favourites, they wound up bogged down in a stalemate with Queens Park Rangers which lasted throughout the game’s runtime.

The hosts’ fans are somewhat disappointed at them, given the lacklustre defensive performances they’ve seen recently. Cardiff City conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 games played at Cardiff City Stadium.

have been met with a lot of success in previous away games – at least in terms of goal-scoring. They scored 8 in their previous 3 away games, so this might be a good chance to consider an Over 4.5 Goals bet.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.95. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.

Betting tip (stake: 7/10): Under 2,5 1.95 at Betway
Correct score prediction: 0:0
