THE PREDICTION
It’s always a highly charged occasion when fierce rivals Swansea and Cardiff lock horns in the South Wales derby and this one certainly isn’t expected to be anything different. Cardiff in particular are under huge pressure having lost five consecutive Championship games leading into this match, although the Bluebirds will have surely benefitted from having full two weeks to prepare for a match that could see boss Mick McCarthy sacked if it doesn’t go their way. Swansea will adopt their usual possession-based style of play and won’t take any unnecessary risks that could see them caught out by the visitors. As you would expect in a game like this, avoiding defeat will likely be on the minds of both teams first and foremost and with that in mind, a match low on clear-cut chances may be in prospect so consider backing under 2.5 goals. In terms of the actual result, it would be no surprise if the two teams could not be separated here and were each forced to accept a point.
