Cardiff City secured a 1-0 win over Sheffield United to book a place in the next round of the FA Cup. They now return to the league, where they fought back to get a 1-1 draw in their last outing against Micheal Carrick’s Middlesbrough. They were so composed in the game, managing just 25% possession of the ball, but they held on to the very end to secure the needed one point. The Bluebirds are unbeaten in their last 4 games in all competitions, but they have not been performing well in front of their home fans, remaining winless in their last five home games. They lost 4 of those games and failed to score in three. Cardiff sit second to the bottom of the league with 23 points in 25 games, scoring 25 goals and conceding 40. A win for them in this game could send them to 20th on the table.

The team's highest goal scorer, Callum Robinson, is available for selection after completing his suspension. The 29-year-old was red-carded against Coventry. He scored three goals in two matches before the suspension, and his return means a lot to the team. However, Michael Reindorf, Aaron Ramsey, David Turnbull and Isaak Davies are all ruled out due to injuries.

Watford suffered a 4-1 loss to Fulham in the FA Cup third round. The defeat extended their poor run to four games in all competitions after they had lost to Cardiff, QPR, and Sheffield United in Championship games. The Hornets are winless in 12 of their last 13 games on the road this season, including their last 6. They sit 9th on the table with 37 points in 25 games, scoring 35 goals and conceding 36. A win in this game could send them to a playoff spot.

The team's highest goal scorer with nine goals is currently experiencing a goal drought. The 28-year-old Ivorian has not scored in his last 5 games, but he was given a rest against Fulham, and I think he should be refreshed to regain his scoring torch. However, due to injuries, Tom Dele-Bashiru, Daniel Bachmann, and Kevin Keben are ruled out of this game.

Cardiff City — Jak Alnwick, Andy Rinomhota, Dimitrios Goutas, Jesper Daland, Callum O'Dowda, Manolis Siopis, Calum Chambers, Cian Ashford, Rubin Colwill, Ollie Tanner, Yakou Méïté.

Watford — Jonathan Bond, Ryan Andrews, Mattie Pollock, Angelo Ogbonna, Francisco Sierralta, Jeremy Ngakia, Edo Kayembe, Giorgi Chakvetadze, Imran Louza, Kwadwo Baah, Rocco Vata.

  • Cardiff City are unbeaten in their last 4 games against Watford.
  • Watford lost their last 4 games.
  • Cardiff have scored the joint-second-lowest goal (25) this season.
  • Five of the last six games between the two sides have seen the BTTS results.
  • Watford won one away game this season.

Both teams need to win in this game to change their positions on the table. A win for the hosts will move them out of the relegation zone, while a win for the visitors will send them to a playoff spot. However, things have not been going well with the hosts at home, where they are winless in their last 5 games, while the visitors are also performing below par on the road, where they have only seen one win this season. With this, I think a draw would settle things here. Also, Cardiff are one of the worst attacking sides in the league and rely heavily on their defense to get points. While I expect goals from both sides to follow the head-to-head trends between both sides, I expect a low-goal encounter.

Our prediction for the match is Under 2.5 goals for odds of 1.77 at 1xbet.

Our second prediction is that Both Teams To Score for odds of 2.20 at Betway.

Our third prediction is a Draw for odds of 3.30 at Bet365.
