West Brom vs Cardiff City: Top free betting tips
The Baggies are looking to further cement their place in the playoff places as they currently sit four points above seventh-placed Hull City but they will have to do so without Daryl Dike who looks to have suffered another horrible injury after being taken off on a stretcher against Ipswich Town. Carlos Corberan's side has lost three of their previous nine matches, one of which was an FA Cup match. Wins against Norwich City, Leeds United, Aldershot Town, Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham City have ensured The Baggies have had a good start to 2024. Cardiff City's form is very much up and down, excellent wins against QPR and Watford are surrounded by defeats to Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds United, Plymouth Argyle and Preston North End.
