Fulham 1/2 to beat Cardiff City in Wednesday’s Championship matchup

Competition: Championship

Market: Fulham win

Odds: 1/2 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Championship table, Fulham will host Cardiff City on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, managing to make an emphatic return to winning ways last weekend, Fulham have their sights set on securing an immediate Championship return. In their first 12 second-tier matchups so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, two draws and three defeats, scoring 27 and conceding 14 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 23 and opening the midweek fixtures sat just two points adrift of climbing back into the automatic spots, it should be noted that they also hold the best-attacking tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen over the weekend landing a 4-1 victory against QPR on home soil, they landed just their second win from their last six matchups across all formats. However, it is worth highlighting that the hosts have secured back-to-back Championship wins on home soil.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a woeful run of form, Cardiff find themselves firmly battling it out at the wrong end of the Championship table. In their 12 second-tier matchups so far this season, they have recorded three wins, two draws and seven defeats, scoring 12 and conceding 22 in return. Managing to muster just a points tally of 11 from a possible 36, the Blues open the midweek fixtures sat way down in 20th and holding just a three-point buffer over the drop zone. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 3-0 defeat against bitter rivals Swansea last weekend, Cardiff have lost each of their last six Championship matchups on the spin. It should also be noted, Wednesday’s guests have scored just a single goal on that six-match losing run.
