Prediction: 1-1
Stoke City
Cardiff City will be aiming to put an end to their four-game winless run in the Championship when they take on Stoke City on Saturday afternoon. Following three consecutive defeats, the Bluebirds shared the spoils with Blackburn in midweek to regain a much-needed confidence and, no doubt, they would be happy with one point from the Stoke game as well. All O’Dowda, Meite, McGuinness, and Alnwick should miss out with injuries.
The Potters, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Coventry City. Stoke and Cardiff seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils on Matchday 34. Steven Schumacher should have a full squad to choose from for Saturday’s encounter. You should bear in mind that the two sides shared the spoils in five of their last six meetings in the English second tier.
Highlighted Player (Jack Bonham):
Jack Bonham is a professional footballer who was born in Stevenage on the 14th of September, 1993. The 26-year-old, although having born in England, is an Irish International and has featured for the Republic of Ireland's Under-17 team five times.
At the club level, he began his youth career with Watford and signed his first professional contract in September 2010 at the age of 17. Bonham's first-ever professional appearance came on the 4th of May, 2013 as a substitute against Leeds United in the final game of the 12/13 Championship season.
This appearance marked the 1.92 m standing goalkeeper's only appearance in a Watford shirt. Bonham then went on to play for clubs like Brentford, Carlisle United and Bristol Rovers before eventually joining Gillingham at the start of the 2019 season on a two-year contract. He's since featured nine times for the club and kept two clean sheets.
Highlighted Team (Cardiff):
Cardiff City are a Welsh football club that compete in the English second tier (Championship). In 2009 they moved from Ninian Park to Cardiff City Stadium, the venue that officially holds 33,280 spectators.
The Bluebirds played their first ever Premier League match on 18 August, 2013, but they were beaten by West Ham United (0-2) on their debut in the English top flight. However, a week later Fraizer Campbell (two goals) and Aron Gunnarson helped Cardiff City record their first ever win in the Premier League.
The Bluebirds outplayed Manchester City back then, but they eventually dropped to the Championship at the end of the season. Fellow Welsh outfit Swansea City are considered Cardiff’s fiercest rivals and the two teams take on each other in the South Wales derby.
The colour of Cardiff City’s home kit is blue, whilst they wear red shirts and shorts when playing on the travels.
