Championship rivals Stoke City and Cardiff City lock horns in the fourth round of the FA Cup at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Potters and Bluebirds were both eliminated in the third round of last season’s FA Cup. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Stoke City will be feeling a lot better about themselves after halting a five-match winless run in the Championship with a 2-1 victory over Hull City last weekend.
However, that victory was only the Potters’ third in their last 17 matches across all competitions, with one of those being their win against Sunderland in extra-time in round three of this competition.
Despite their difficulties this term, the hosts have been tough to overcome at home, unbeaten in their last three home matches (W1 D2 L0) while maintaining clean sheets in each of those games.
Meanwhile, Cardiff City will come into this match looking to put a 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Leeds United last weekend behind them.
However, before that hammering at Elland Road, the Bluebirds had built up a nice run of results. They were unbeaten in seven consecutive league matches while also knocking Sheffield United out of this competition.
Additionally, the visitors have shown solid improvement on the road, with just one loss in their last five outings (W2 D2 L1) - a significant upturn after failing to win a single away game since the start of the season.

Our Stoke vs Cardiff Prediction
Stoke City have found victories hard to come by lately, with only three wins in 17 games across all competitions, one of which came in this competition.
Cardiff, on the other hand, were in great shape before that shocking 7-0 loss to Leeds last weekend, which illustrated their defensive frailties. However, they have been scoring with regularity too, with that defeat marking the first time they failed to find the back of the net since before Christmas. Our Stoke City vs Cardiff City prediction is both teams to score.
