Bristol City vs Cardiff City Preview

Separated by just goal difference battle in the Championship, Bristol City and Cardiff City meet in a mid-table battle this weekend as they aim for a spot in the top half of the division. Bristol has scored the same amount of goals as they have allowed and is in 12th place with 0 goal difference.

Even though the Bluebirds are two spots below the Robins in 14th place, they have won one more game going into this match. However, Cardiff has only scored 39 goals and allowed 48 goals to be scored against them; as a result, they have only won one of their last five games.

Cardiff enters this match knowing that, should other results go against teams like Boro, a top-half berth is up for grabs. The team has also already defeated Bristol, winning 2-0 thanks to goals from Perry Ng and Rubin Colwill earlier in the season.

Last time out, Bristol lost to Sheffield Wednesday on the road, which was, considering the Owls’ current situation, perhaps their worst performance of the year. The Robins lost at home to Queens Park Rangers, another struggling team, in February. At the beginning of last month, they also lost at home to Leeds United. However, victories over Middlesbrough 2-1 at the Riverside Stadium and Southampton 3-1 at Ashton Gate have nonetheless propelled Bristol into the top half of the standings.

Bristol City vs Cardiff City Prediction

Both Bristol and Cardiff are on a poor run of form and have struggled to find wins this campaign. Considering their form in the last five fixtures, a draw looks to be a fair result with Cardiff only returning to winning ways last week while Bristol has also been on a poor run.

Prediction: Bristol City 1-1 Cardiff City
