Cardiff v Huddersfield

Cardiff vs Huddersfield Town Preview

Cardiff City registered a second win on the trot in the Championship on the weekend when The Bluebirds stole the points in a 1-0 win away from home at Bristol City in the Severn derby which followed a previous 2-1 home win against Stoke City so the Welsh hosts will be eyeing off a third win on the bounce on Wednesday night against a Huddersfield Town outfit who managed to hold Leeds United to a 1-1 draw in Saturday's Yorkshire clash.

Two league wins on the trot has helped lift Cardiff City up into the top half of the Championship table where Erol Bulut's side now occupy 11th place although the prospects of a play-off spot this season appear very slim as the hosts are still nine points adrift of sixth placed Hull City.

Cardiff City had previously slumped to just one win picked up from their preceding seven games which came in the form of a 1-0 win away from home at Watford but having also been handed no fewer than five defeats in the process, the jury may still be out as to whether The Bluebirds are capable of picking up all three points here.

Losses to Leeds United, Plymouth Argyle, Preston NE, West Brom and Norwich City underline the difficulties Cardiff City have had in recent times.

Huddersfield Town gained what could prove to be a valuable point with a 1-1 draw at home against Yorkshire rivals Leeds United in Saturday's lunchtime fixture but they too have found league wins hard to come by in recent weeks as The Terriers have managed to collect just three wins from their last 11 matches overall.

However, wins against Sheffield Wednesday, Sunderland and Watford have been offset by losses incurred against the likes of Middlesbrough, Leicester City, Southampton and Hull City respectively but the goals market appeals here as nine of Huddersfield Town's last 11 games overall have also resulted in both teams hitting the back of the net.

This 11-match sequence also includes four draws which have also resulted with both teams scoring and another score-draw could be on the cards at the Cardiff City Stadium on Wednesday night as well, as both teams have not exactly been convincing in recent weeks.

Results away from home for The Terriers have produced further disappointing results as Andre Breitenreiter's side have managed to collect just two wins from their last 14 outings on the road in the Championship but no fewer than 11 of these 14 away games have also resulted with both teams hitting the back of the net.
