Cardiff will be keen to post a fourth consecutive home win in the EFL Championship on matchday 14, when they host a West Ham side looking for a way out of their two-game losing streak. This match at the Cardiff City Stadium between the 17th-placed ‘Bluebirds’ and the 8th-placed ‘Hammers’ could end up being an entertaining game with over 3.5 goals, our match prediction.
Ahead of this round, Cardiff have 14 points (W3, D5, L5) and are five points above the relegation zone. West Ham’s 22 points (W6, D4, L3) put them just two points above the ninth, while starting the round just two points behind third.
Cardiff lost 3-0 away at the Wolves last weekend, ending a three-game unbeaten run (W2, D1). They have lost consecutive league games only once in this season and will hope to bounce back at home. The ‘Blue Birds’ are unbeaten at home this season (W3, D3), including three wins in a row.
West Ham lost 3-1 at home against West Brom last weekend, and coupled with a 3-2 loss to Southampton, the Hammers have posted consecutive defeats for the first time. Their offensive record is helping the Hammers, as they have already scored a league-high 33 goals. Away form could extend help, as West Ham are unbeaten on the road this season (W4, D3).
