Bottom of the table Cardiff City host Plymouth Argyle in the Championship in one of Saturday’s four early kick offs. The Bluebirds have had a season to forget so far and remain bottom of the table with one win in nine. The Pilgrims are faring slightly better, lying 14th in the table, ostensibly due to their home form. Here’s our prediction for this match.

Cardiff are enjoying their best run of form this season. A win over Millwall was followed with a 1-1 draw away to Bristol City before the international break. 

Despite those four points, they remain rooted to the bottom of the table with just five points from nine games and four points from safety.

They’ll fancy their chances against Wayne Rooney’s Plymouth who have picked up just just one point from 12 available on the road this season, the second worst record in the division.

The Pilgrims have won all of their last three home games at Home Park, but lost both their last two away games 1-0 (at West Brom and then Burnley). Their last game was a 2-1 home win over Blackburn before the international break. 

Their solitary away point came from a 1-1 away draw with QPR back in August.

Our Cardiff vs Plymouth Prediction

Our prediction for the Cardiff City vs. Plymouth Argyle Championship match is: Under 2.5 Goals.

There's strong correlation in the data in this game for Cardiff home matches to feature very few goals and Plymouth's away games tend to be similar. That's useful given the unpredictable nature of how these teams have performed this season and especially of late. As such, that makes backing the Under 2.5 Goals option clearly the prediction to make in this game.
