High-flying Cardiff City will kick off their midweek League One clash with Burton Albion as the hit favourites to land another three points. The visiting Brewers have endured a torrid start to the season in contrast to the hosting Bluebirds who flew out of the blocks but they have had their wings clipped a little in recent weeks. Here's our prediction for this key game.
Cardiff made a very strong start to the season and led the table for several weeks. However, they could not sustain that and now lie fourth in the table with 20 points from nine games, although they have a game in hand on two teams above them. Burton Albion are bottom of the table with just five points, although they have played just eight games so far this season.
Home fans will want Cardiff City to banish the memory of their last home game, a 3-1 defeat to table-toppers Bradford. However since then the Bluebirds stunned Burnley in the League Cup, winning 2-1 at Turf Moor and then were 2-0 winners away at Wigan Athletic at the weekend.
Burton have failed to score in their last three games. That run began with a 1-0 home defeat to Lincoln City. They then travelled to Huddersfield and came away with a creditable 0-0 draw but at the weekend, they were well-beaten at home by Plymouth, losing 4-0 to the Pilgrims.

Our Cardiff vs Burton Albion Prediction
Our prediction for the Cardiff City vs. Burton Albion League One match is: Cardiff City wins the match.
Their defeat to Bradford apart, it has been a fine start for Cardiff City boss Brian Barry-Murphy. A home game against a side struggling for form and goals should result in a solid performance for the home team. Burton are really struggling and there is nothing in the data to suggest they could spring an upset here. We're backing Cardiff to win this match.
