Cardiff vs Sheffield United Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Sridhar | in Championship Predictions
Sheffield United will look to maintain their leadership at the top of the Championship points tally as they visit Wales to play Cardiff City. This match at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday will see the 21st-placed Bluebirds play the top-ranked Blades with so much at stake for both teams.
Cardiff have 18 points from 20 matches and are only one point above the relegation zone, while Sheffield have 45 points from 21 matches with a three-point gap to Leeds. Cardiff were pegged back by a late goal as they drew 2-2 with Stoke in their last match. That result extended their winless run to seven matches, drawing three and losing four.
Worryingly for the home fans, their season seems to have taken a turn for the worse at this venue. Cardiff lost their last three home league games, the last two without scoring!
Sheffield United could take advantage as they come here with back-to-back wins in the league, each time accompanied with a clean sheet. The Blades are in the midst of an impressive ten-game unbeaten run in the competition, winning eight and drawing two.
With only 11 goals conceded, Sheffield United have one of the best defensive records of the season and could look to make the most of that. The worry for the title hopefuls is their poor away form that has seen them win just three of the last eight away league games, drawing three and losing two.
