Our prediction for this Championship match:
Cardiff City Stadium will host Tuesday’s Championship game between Cardiff City and Millwall, the two bottom-table sides. The Bluebirds are stuck at the bottom of the table and they must be low on confidence following four consecutive defeats in the English second tier. As both William Fish (defender) and Callum O’Dowda limped off with injuries in a heavy 4-1 loss to Hull City, home win should not be considered.
The Lions, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-1 win over Preston. Given Cardiff City’s shaky defence, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up vital three points from the midweek clash. Speaking of the visiting team, Ireland forward Aidomo Emakhu is banned for the match, while all Tom Bradshaw, Josh Coburn, and Billy Mitchell are out of contention with injuries. You should know that Millwall have defeated Cardiff in four of their last five meetings in the English second tier.
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.
