Prediction: 0-0
Cardiff
Blackburn City and Cardiff City go head to head at Ewood Park in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program. The Riversiders aim to extend their unbeaten run to five games, with the team eyeing their third consecutive clean sheet. Keep in mind, though, that Blackburn Rovers had no more than three goal attempts in a goalless draw with Barnsley at the weekend.
Both Bradley Dack and Scott Wharton are sidelined with injuries, while Bradley Johnson, Jan Paul van Hecke, and Joe Rankin-Costello are rated doubtful for the match. The Bluebirds head into the match following back-to-back defeats to Coventry City and Bournemouth. Since the visitors have been playing some low-scoring games of late as well, we are tempted to put our money on under 2.5 goals. Ryan Giles has been tested positive for coronavirus, while Joe Ralls is out of contention with a groin injury.
Highlighted Player (Lewis Holtby):
Lewis Holtby is a left-footed footballer who plays for Hamburg as a midfielder. Holtby began his senior career at Alemannia Aachen and he played for the club between 2007 and 2009. The German player then joined Schalke in 2009, but he was quickly sent to Bochum on loan.
After ending his loan spells with Bochum and Mainz, he returned to Schalke and it has to be noted that he made 55 goals for the club, scoring 10 goals in Bundesliga. On 28 January, 2013 Holtby signed a four-and-a-half-year deal with Tottenham Hotspur, but he was playing below expectations for the Premier League club.
In September, 2014 Holtby joined Hamburg on loan and on 1 July, 2015 he signed a permanent contract with the club. His contract with Hamburg expires on 30 June, 2018. Lewis Holtby has 24 caps for Germany U21 and he made his debut for German national team on 17 November, 2010 in a goalless draw with Sweden. He started the game, but he was substituted by Andre Schurrle after 77 minutes.
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.
