Cardiff vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Cardiff City have found their form and will be seeking a fifth straight win when they host Swansea on Match Day 18 in the Championship. The home team heads to the derby placed ninth, with 26 points while Swansea have 30 points and are fourth in the standings. In their most recent outing, Cardiff came from down to beat Stoke City 2-1, extending their run of wins to four straight, and made it seven wins in 17 league matches this season. They have three clean sheets in the last four matches and Cardiff fans will have a reason to look forward to this game, with the way they have picked form. A few weeks ago, after a 1-0 loss to Coventry, Cardiff were 18th in the standings and nine points behind Swansea. Facing their South Wales rivals would have been unthinkable then, but after scoring two goals or more in three of their last four matches, they are actually favorites here. Kieffer Moore has been a key man for the side, with four goals in the last four matches and will definitely be fired up for this game. Cardiff’s three of the last four matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have three wins in the last five home matches. In those five home games, they have failed to score in just one and kept three clean sheets. Their recent home matches have also been high scoring, with three of the last five producing at least three goals. With their form going to this game, Cardiff will hope for a first win over Swansea in four meetings. They have failed to win any of the last three and have also not been able to score in the three meetings.
While Swansea have had a dip in form, they remain just a point off the automatic promotion slots. They have two wins in their last five matches and three clean sheets in the last four matches. Swansea played to a 0-0 draw with AFC Bournemouth in their most recent game, and boast of the best defence in the league, having conceded 10 goals in their 17 matches. In the last five matches they have conceded more than one goal in just one game. It is the scoring front that hasn’t ticked well for Swansea; with 19 goals, they remain the lowest scorers in the top 10 and only one of their last 12 matches have produced over 2.5 goals. The Swans have failed to score in just two of their last 15 matches but have scored more than one goal in just one of their last eight matches. They have one win in six away matches and one clean sheet while they have conceded more than one in one of their last eight away matches.

Our Cardiff vs Swansea Prediction
Swansea City have not had the best of runs in recent matches but they have managed to hold on their top four place, largely due to their early season form. Their defensive mettle has also been key and had they been as good in attack, they’d be higher in the standings. They head to this game as underdogs, with a low win rate away from home and of course an unconvincing attack. However, a lot in this game will be determined by their defence, as Cardiff have done well in recent matches, with Kieffer Moore on fire. However, we can’t ignore the fact that this game, a derby, will be played without fans and thus a disadvantage for the home team. With all matters staying constant, we will go with a draw in this game.
