Cardiff vs Wigan: Top Free Betting Tips

Following a terrible losing streak in the league, Wigan Athletic travel to Cardiff City for the next game in Championship on Saturday, 14 January. Cardiff City has also raised a winless pattern in the league ahead of this game.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

Wigan Athletic have been the dominant side at the home of Cardiff City with three wins in the last five meetings. But they are getting desperate in the league and lost consecutive four Championship outings before this duel. The Latics are also winless in the previous eight away attempts, losing five of them. However, the Bluebirds have also been unable to record a victory in the last six competitive games at home. So we expect this game to end with an equal score.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Cardiff City hit the target twice in the last game in FA Cup but they have scored only three goals in the previous five league outings. Wigan Athletic have also managed an average of only one goal per game in the recent five matches. The Bluebirds have also kept two clean sheets in the last three league duels. Furthermore, three of the previous five H2Hs at the home of Cardiff City have ended with low-scoring totals. Given the current numbers, we don’t see the teams featuring a high-scoring total in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 t0 Draw

Wigan Athletic have hit the target in recent consecutive games but they have rattled the net only once per game in all of the last six outings. The visiting side has also been unable to collect a clean sheet in that course. On the contrary, the Bluebirds have also hit the target at least twice in only one of the previous five league outings. We believe to see goals from both ends of the field in this game but with an expected scoreline of 1-1.
