Leeds will take on Cardiff at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon. The Whites are top of the Championship ahead of our prediction on this match while the Bluebirds are in 18th.

The home side has won 12 of 15 games here so far this season, conceding just seven goals in the process. Just Norwich has found the net more in home games while only Burnley has conceded fewer.

It is only Burnley who have taken three points away with them, that match way back on September 14. In 12 games since, only Blackburn has left with a share of the points. That is a sensational run of form on their own patch.

Cardiff has picked up points consistently away from home this season. They have come from draws though, a single win in 14 away matches but they have picked up points from nine games in total.

They have been banging in the goals on their travels of late but have struggled to stop them from going in the other end. That could make for an interesting time at a high-scoring team like Leeds.

Our Leeds vs Cardiff Prediction

There is little doubt that this is a match that Leeds should be winning. Cardiff does draw a lot on the road, only beaten once in their last seven away from home in the league. That means that 1.25 about Leeds makes very limited value.

Five of the 15 teams to head to Elland Road have scored and Cardiff has been finding the net enough in recent starts to add to that. Our Leeds vs Cardiff prediction is for over 2.5 goals.
