Cardiff City vs Huddersfield Town Prediction 06.03.2024

• Competition: Championship
• Date: 06.03.2024
• Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Cardiff City Stadium (Cardiff)

Cardiff have bounced back with two consecutive victories in the Championship, propelling them into the top half of the table. Despite sitting in 11th place, this certainly instills confidence and motivation for future matches. Cardiff will enter the final 11 rounds without any particular performance incentive, as they are comfortably distanced from both the playoff and relegation zones.

Huddersfield, a team that stands to gain or lose significantly until the Championship’s conclusion, unlike its competitors, currently holds 38 points. They are among a cluster of four teams precariously situated on the brink of the danger zone. In the previous round, they played to a 1-1 draw with Leeds, who are in third place, a result that can be viewed as commendable. However, they have struggled with matches away from home throughout the season, having secured only three wins.

Cardiff City vs Huddersfield pick: OVER 2.5 GOALS

Evidently, judging by the goal difference, Cardiff isn’t a high scoring team and the number of goals in their games is average. But, this is a team that enjoys being on the offensive, particularly during parts of the championship when the outcome isn’t of significant importance to them.

Matches involving Huddersfield have been relatively more efficient, with 97 goals scored across 35 matches so far. This results in an average slightly above 2.5 but below 3 goals per match.

In head-to-head matches between these teams, there’s often a high goal count. Three or more goals were scored in 7 of their last 9 games. Therefore, betting on over 2.5 goals could be a good choice.
