Prediction: 1-0
Rotherham
Cardiff City and Rotherham United square off against each other at Cardiff City Stadium in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Saturday’s program. The Bluebirds did well to beat Peterborough 2-1 in their season opener, while sharing the spoils with Port Vale on Matchday 2. Given their fine performances in the EFL Cup triumph over Swindon, home win should definitely be considered.
Both Chris Willock and Yousef Salech should be recalled to the starting XI after the duo was rested in the midweek victory. The Millers, on the other hand, survived Salford City in the opening match of their EFL Cup campaign, but given their difficulties on the road in League One, we are tempted to place our bets on the South Wales outfit. Adding to their woes, both Kion Etete and Sam Nombe are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
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.
