THE PREDICTION
Cardiff make the short journey across the Severn Bridge to face Bristol City in what will prove a fiery affair as always. Due to the importance of this match from a fans perspective, goals are usually at a premium as both sides tend to set up cautiously knowing the ramifications of defeat and the last four fixtures between the two has seen just a single goal scored in each game. Bristol City have won their last four matches in all competitions at Ashton Gate and with home advantage again here, will be confident of triumphing over Mick McCarthy’s side and completing a league double over the Bluebirds. Whilst under 2.5 goals scored in this fixture should prove the smart play, the hosts draw no bet is also worth consideration.
