Cardiff vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Thobelani Moyo in Championship Predictions
Cardiff, looking to ease relegation fears play host to Swansea City at Cardiff City Stadium on matchday 27 of the Championship. Cardiff are 21st in the table, while Swansea are 12th. Here's our match prediction.
Despite breaking the deadlock in the 65th minute, thanks to a Cian Ashford strike, it wasn't enough to see Cardiff City evade sharing the spoils in a 1-1 home draw against Watford.
As a result of that draw, the team now finds itself one point ahead of the drop zone, and another slip-up could see them drop below the red line.
The Bluebirds might be unbeaten in four championship games (W1, D3), but they have won just one of their last 13 matches, recording six draws and six losses.
Swansea City has crossed paths with Cardiff City just once this season, and that match ended in a 1-1 home draw.
However, the Swans will be gunning for more than a point this time as they look to put behind their 3-0 away defeat to Southampton in the third round of the FA Cup on Sunday.
The team has shown signs of inconsistency in the Championship. They have managed just two wins in their last six outings (D1, L3), and their previous league match ended in a 1-1 draw against West Brom, extending their winless run to two games.

Our Cardiff vs Swansea Prediction
Cardiff City heads into this clash, hoping to halt a three-match draw streak in the Championship. They are currently one point ahead of the relegation zone, and a defeat here could see them drop below the red line.
The scenario mentioned above could be a reality given their poor home form. They are winless in their last six matches, recording four losses and two draws with under 2.5 goals hitting each of their previous five. It won't come as a surprise if Swansea were to win here. Our Cardiff City v Swansea City prediction is for Under 2.5.
