Bitesize Prediction: Cardiff vs Sheffield United – 11/12/22
Competition: Championship
Market: Sheffield United win
Rating: 5/4 @
Looking to find a way back into the top two before heading into the World Cup break, Sheffield United will make the trip to Cardiff on Saturday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, while Cardiff might have managed to earn a well-deserved 1-0 victory at Sunderland earlier in the month, the Bluebirds came down to earth a few days ago. Putting on a nightmarish spectacle in South Wales as they were hit with an action-packed 3-2 defeat at home to Hull, caretaker boss Mark Hudson finds his side staring firmly over his shoulder in the drop zone. Although Cardiff clung to their Championship status last season, they find themselves in the midst of another prolonged rut. Now losing five of their previous seven second-tier clashes, the hosts on Saturday have also gained a reputation for their home troubles. It's worth noting, including that 3-2 defeat at the hands of Hull in midweek, that Hudson's temporary side have taken just three points in their last four meetings at Cardiff City Stadium.
>As for the visitors, extremely frustrated earlier in the week after being hit with a shock 1-0 home defeat to Rotherham, Sheffield United will seek an immediate response on Saturday afternoon. However, despite seeing their four-match unbeaten streak come to an abrupt end at Bramall Lane, Paul Heckingbottom's side are still fighting hard in the pursuit of promotion. Making the trip to South Wales this weekend just one point clear of a top two finish, the Blades will be desperate to establish a marker ahead of the World Cup here. Likewise, it's also worth noting, including back-to-back wins at Bristol City and West Brom, Sheffield United have won five of their last seven championships on the road. Two teams that find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the table, we're backing Heckingbottom's team to make an immediate comeback to victory here.
