Cardiff vs Sheffield Wednesday Predictions

Bluebirds can claim vital victory

Cardiff can overcome the difference in league positions when they host Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday. The hosts are 21st and Wednesday 12th, but Cardiff are a value bet to get a vital victory.

Sheffield Wednesday are 12 points above Cardiff in the table, but both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season. Wednesday sit 12th with 14 wins and 15 defeats, while Cardiff have won nine and lost 17.

Cardiff should get a goal here. They have scored in 17 of their last 19 league games and will fancy their chances of finding the net against a Wednesday side who have lost more games than they’ve won this season.

Wednesday’s recent form has been disappointing, with two defeats in their last three games as favourites.

A narrow Cardiff victory looks the most likely outcome, with a 2-1 win for the hosts the correct-score pick. Six of Cardiff’s nine Championship victories this season have been by one goal and five of the last seven meetings between these sides have seen both teams score.
