Prediction: 1-0
Derby
Saturday’s football game at Cardiff City Stadium pits together Cardiff City and Derby County, the two relegation-threatened team. The Bluebirds are undefeated in the previous six league matches, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to avoid relegation. Defender Perry Ng is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while the likes of Turnbull, Reindorf, Ramsey, Davies, and O’Dowda remain in the recovery room.
The Rams, on the other hand, are on a five-game losing run in the Championship. As Derby County have been struggling in front of goal of late, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Cardiff City. In their last meeting in South Wales, Cardiff City defeated Derby County 1-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Defender Kane Wilson is rated doubtful for the away team after limping off with injury in a 1-0 loss to Sunderland.
Highlighted Team (Derby):
Derby County is one of the 12 founder members of the Football League. However, nowadays the Rams compete in the Championship and they play their home matches at Pride Park Stadium. Derby County have won the two trophies in the English top flight (1971/1972, 1974/1975), with the team lifting the FA Cup trophy just after the World War II (1946).
Derby’s main rivals are Nottingham Forest, Leicester City and Leeds United, but the rivalry between Forest and Derby is regarded as the biggest one.
The two teams take on each other in the East Midlands derby. The colour of Derby’s shirts is white, whilst their shorts are black. It has to be noted that the club was founded in 1884 by William Morley. The Rams competed in the European competitions four times, but they did not record a notable result in the European Cups. The club’s chairman is Mel Morris.
