Cardiff vs Blackpool: Top Free Betting Tips

Cardiff City are scheduled to line up against Blackpool at home in the next EFL Championship fixture on Saturday, 17 December. Both teams come into this game after raising a winless momentum in the league.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Cardiff City has found the back of the net seven times in the last five home games, scoring three in a single friendly game. On the other hand, Blackpool are getting desperate in this respect as they scored only once in the previous five meetings. Two of the last four H2H meetings of these teams also ended with below 2.5 goals. So given the current form of both teams, we don’t see this game featuring a high-scoring total at the end.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

The Bluebirds conceded goals in recent home games but they have kept clean sheets against Rotherham and Blackburn in October. As Blackpool failed to score in four of the last five outings, we predict the home side is capable enough in this game to claim a clean sheet again. On the scoring end, Cardiff City has rattled the net in six of the last seven attempts. Furthermore, Blackpool allowed goals in all of the previous four away outings.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Cardiff

Cardiff City has hit the target five times in the last two games and the Bluebirds also scored more than once in two of the last three H2Hs against the Seasiders. On the other hand, Blackpool has struggled in the back end of the team as well and conceded seven goals in the last four visits. Bluebirds have rattled the net at least twice in three of the last four matches and we predict their momentum will carry on in this game to feature a 2-0 victory.

Cardiff vs Blackpool: Form, Recent Games, and News

Cardiff Preview

After consecutive defeats in the league, the Bluebirds finally secured a single point in the last game with a 2-2 draw against Stoke City. Cardiff  City has recorded a total of seven wins and four draws in 22 league games and stands in the nineteenth position. Left-back Jamilu Collins will miss the upcoming game due to a cruciate ligament injury.

Blackpool Preview

The Seasiders also saved a point after a long wait in the last game with a goalless draw against Birmingham City at home. The team has won six outings in the season so far and recent consecutive defeats have thrown them to the second-last position on the table. Left winger Keshi Anderson won’t be able to give his services in this game due to an injury.
