Cardiff vs Swansea City Prediction: Swansea City's performance in their upcoming fixture remains uncertain

Cardiff City is set to welcome Swansea City in the much-anticipated South Wales derby, with the former aware that triumph in this fixture could potentially propel them even further away from the danger of relegation in the Championship.

Cardiff City’s Form

Cardiff City's recent form has seen them earn just five points from their previous 12 fixtures, making their recent upturn in fortunes more noteworthy. However, manager Sabri Lamouchi is cognizant of the fact that much work lies ahead if the club hopes to maintain its position in the second tier of English football.

Presently, Cardiff finds themselves merely three points behind Huddersfield Town, who are now seemingly in the clear from any potential points deduction, thereby amplifying the importance of matches such as the upcoming one on Saturday.

Despite Cardiff's impressive haul of seven points from their last three home fixtures, the South Wales derby against Swansea City is notoriously unpredictable and therefore presents a significant challenge.

Cardiff’s possible lineup

Allsop; Ng, Kipre, McGuinness; Romeo, Wintle, Sawyers, O'Dowda, Philogene; Kaba, Etete.

Swansea City’s Form

Prior to their recent victory over Bristol City, Swansea City had suffered defeats in five of their last six fixtures, with four of those losses coming at the hands of promotion-contending teams. However, the team showed resilience by bouncing back with a 2-0 triumph over fellow mid-table side Bristol City.

Swansea City has secured eight victories from 19 league fixtures played on their home ground during the current 2022-23 season. This level of achievement is crucial, given their vulnerability away from home.

The team has suffered eight defeats on their travels this season, with four of those losses coming consecutively since February 11th. Furthermore, Swansea has only managed to score a solitary goal in their last four away fixtures, highlighting their struggles on the road.

Swansea City’s lineup

Fisher; Darling, Cabango, Wood, Manning; Grimes; Cundle, Fulton, Ntcham; Piroe, Cullen.
