Cardiff City vs Preston North End Prediction and Betting Tips (11.12.2024)

Command Analysis

Cardiff City

Wales

Current form

Cardiff are struggling. They have won four, drawn five and lost nine games this term. Their goal difference is just 17:28. The Bluebirds are struggling to find consistency, and their five-game winless streak is making things worse.

Omer Riz, the team head coach, has not yet been able to find a happy medium in the game of his charges. He constantly changes tactics and game approaches, but for now the team is still among the five weakest clubs in the league, and is outside the relegation zone only thanks to additional indicators.

Disqualifications and injuries

Eteta, Ramsey, Tsunoda and Turnbull will miss the upcoming match due to injuries.

Interesting trends for betting

Cardiff City fail to win five games in a row
The hosts have conceded goals in six games in a row

Preston are not doing well in the Championship. They are in 17th place in the league table and are only one point ahead of Plymouth, who are in the relegation zone, while the visitors have played one match more.

Tip and bets

1.65total under 2.5 goals

This season, the teams have shown low efficiency, as evidenced by statistical data. The defense of the two teams is not always reliable, but the attacking potential leaves much to be desired. The match will probably be an equal fight, with an emphasis on tactics, and it is unlikely that many goals will be scored.

Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.65

Bet on the outcome

Preston have shown poor results away from home. This is evidenced by the fact that they have not managed to win even once. But Cardiff plays much more pragmatically and interestingly at home. The hosts have taken their main points this season precisely with the support of the local crowd. We will bet on another victory for this team.

Prediction - Cardiff City win with odds of 2.23

Bet on corners

The game is likely to be a cautious one, meaning there is a good chance that the two sides will not be able to get many corner flag serves in.
