Rotherham vs Cardiff Predictions

Tip Reasoning

• Cardiff have won three of their last six games
• Rotherham have conceded in each of their last eight games
• Both sides will be looking to pull away from the relegation places

Relegation dogfight

Both Rotherham and Cardiff City will be hopeful of pulling themselves away from the relegation zone as the two sides face off on Saturday afternoon. Both teams have won two, drawn one and lost two in their last five games, and it will be a closely fought affair at the weekend.

If either side were to edge it, Cardiff look more likely to be able to restrict their opponents to limited opportunities, having kept three clean sheets in their last three wins, only conceding more than one goal just three times in their last fifteen games. Their lack of firepower is a problem, with the worst goalscoring record in the league, but they could edge this one. A prediction for Cardiff to win – draw no bet, looks good here with the extra insurance if they can’t manage to score.

Gaining some ground

Cardiff have just about managed to separate themselves from the relegation zone, with their recent form giving them a four-point cushion from the bottom three. Rotherham have just one point more than their opponents, and both sides will be looking to further distance themselves.

Rotherham have conceded in each of their last eight games, while Cardiff have seen both teams score just twice in their last ten. As a result, a correct score prediction of 1-0 Cardiff appeals here, in what will be a close battle.
