Prediction: 2-1
Swansea
There will be fireworks when Cardiff City and Swansea City go head to head in the South Wales derby on Saturday. The Bluebirds are undefeated in the previous five matches in all competitions and they are surely capable of making life difficult for Swansea at their Cardiff City Stadium. All Aaron Ramsey, David Turnbull, and Isaak Davies continue to miss out with injuries, while talented forward Ollie Tanner is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
The Swans, on the other hand, aim to recover from a heavy FA Cup loss to Southampton, but given their defensive struggles on the road, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the home team. Both Oliver Cooper and Kristian Pedersen miss out with injuries for the visiting team, while midfielder Liam Cullen returns to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the FA Cup loss.
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.
