Cardiff vs Birmingham Match Preview
Cardiff saw their winless run stretched to four with a second defeat in this sequence going down to local rivals Swansea 1-0. It has been an average start since their relegation for the Welsh outfit who sit 14th with four victories, six draws and four defeats from their 14 games.
At the Cardiff City Stadium, the Bluebirds are one of three sides in the Championship unbeaten at their own place (West Brom and Preston are the other two) and have picked up 14 of their 18 points here. Only Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds (three) have a better home defensive record than the four that City have let in.
Birmingham beat Luton 2-1 last weekend to make it back-to-back victories and three from their last four fixtures. The second city outfit sit 11th in the table with 16 of their 22 points having come at their own place.
Away from St Andrew’s, the Blues have struggled winning two and losing five of their seven with each of their last three ending in defeat. A lack of road goals is an issue as (along with Barnsley) they have the joint-worst attacking record with just four goals.
Over the course of a season these two sides might finish in similar positions but the gap is between the home and away form with both producing impressive performances at their own place and really struggling on the road. Cardiff can bounce from their South-Wales derby loss last weekend with an important three points. Given the Welsh side rarely let in goals at their own places and the Blues are struggling to net on their travels enhance this with a home win and under 3.5 goals.
