      Cardiff to Win

      Reason for tip

      Cardiff City look the stronger option away at Bradford City in this high-quality League One contest. Cardiff sit top of the table and their away form has been a major weapon, with just one defeat in their last ten league road trips. They are also scoring freely, finding the net in 12 straight League One games. Bradford remain a dangerous opponent, but recent defensive lapses suggest they can be exposed by a ruthless, in-form visiting side.

      Cardiff 2-1

      Reason for tip

      A narrow away win fits the profile of both teams. Bradford games are regularly open, with both teams scoring in 15 of their 24 league matches this season. Cardiff, meanwhile, tend to get the job done without blowing opponents away, with 11 of their 16 league victories coming by a single-goal margin. Bradford should have chances in front of their own fans, but Cardiff’s cutting edge and composure in tight games point towards another controlled 2-1 success.

      Cardiff Can Edge Tight Top-Three Clash at Valley Parade

      Cardiff are the best bet to win at Bradford on Saturday. Brian Barry-Murphy’s side travel to Valley Parade to face Graham Alexander’s team in League One.

      Cardiff are League One leaders, having won 16 of their 25 games this season, while Bradford are third with 13 wins, seven draws and four losses.

      The visitors are in form away from home, with just one defeat in Cardiff’s last ten League One games.

      The hosts have looked vulnerable in defence, with Bradford failing to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five League One games.

      The visitors will be hopeful of finding the net, with Cardiff having scored in 12 successive League One games. They have also scored in 18 of their last 20 matches, including a thrilling 4-3 victory over Doncaster in December.

      A 2-1 away win for Cardiff looks a decent correct-score bet. 15 of Bradford’s 24 league matches this season have seen both teams score and, of Cardiff’s 16 League One wins, 11 were by a single goal.
