Our prediction for this Championship match:

Cardiff

Cardiff

Bristol City

Bristol City

Cardiff City and Bristol City square off against each other at Cardiff City Stadium in what is expected to be a close Championship encounter. The Bluebirds aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Portsmouth and you should know that they are after their third consecutive win at home ground. January signing Will Alves is pushing for his first start for the club, while both Isaak Davies and David Turnbull continue to miss out through injuries.

The Robins, on the other hand, defeated Stoke City 2-0 at home on Wednesday evening, but given their eight-game winless run on the road, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing more than one point from Saturday’s encounter. With no fresh injury worries to report, boss Liam Manning is unlikely to make too many changes to the team that defeated the Potters. Joe Williams, though, could sneak into the starting XI after serving his one-game ban.

Prediction:
1-1

Highlighted Team (Bristol City):

Bristol City

Bristol City are one of the two famous clubs from the city of Bristol. Formed in 1894 the Robins mostly participated in English lower leagues and they have never played in the Premier League. Bristol City’s bitterest rivals are Bristol Rovers and it has to be noted that two teams first met in 1897. Bristol City have outplayed their local rivals on 43 occasions in the Bristol Derby.

Cardiff City are regarded as Bristol City’s bitter rivals as well. The Robins play their home games at Ashton Gate, the stadium that was opened in 1887. Bristol City were semi-finalists of the League Cup two times (1970/1971, 1988/1989), with the team making it to the FA Cup final in 1909.

The Robins faced Manchester United in the title game, but they failed to upset the English giants in the Crystal Palace clash. It is well known that Bristol City footballers wear red shirts and blue shorts.
