Match Time & Date:

11:00 AM
Prediction: 0-1
Birmingham City
Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff City square off against each other at Loftus Road in what is expected to be a close encounter. The Hoops aim to bounce back from a 3-0 loss to Barnsley, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Cardiff on Matchday 9. Defender Robert Dickie was sent off in the midweek fixture, and, as a result, he is going to miss the Cardiff City game through suspension.
The Bluebirds, on the other hand, have been playing some low-scoring games of late. Under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last five league fixtures, and seeing that QPR failed to find the net in the last four games in the Championship, a low-scoring clash is on the horizon. The likes of Benkovic, Cunningham, and Vassell are all out of contention through injury for the Welsh outfit.
