On Saturday evening, the atmosphere at the Cardiff City Stadium was electric as Cardiff triumphed over Swansea with a 2-0 win. Ollie Tanner scored the crucial goal in the 71st minute, followed by Aaron Ramsey's penalty in the closing moments of the game. Erol Bulut's team has been in excellent form recently, winning three of their last four matches in various competitions, including two out of their last three in the Championship. Their current success has elevated them to the 15th position in the table with a total of seven points. Considering their disappointing 21st place finish last season, Cardiff has ample opportunities for improvement this year. The victory against Swansea will undoubtedly serve as a catalyst for further progress, as the team has already shown significant improvement after a shaky start to the current campaign. It is worth noting that Cardiff only managed to secure one point from their two encounters against Coventry in the previous season. Moreover, Coventry emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline in the match played in Cardiff.
Cardiff City Predicted Lineup
Alnwick; Ng, Goutas, McGuinness, Collins; Siopis, Wintle; Meite, Ramsey, Grant; Ugbo
Coventry City form
Coventry experienced disappointment in the Championship playoff final last season, losing on penalties to Luton Town. As a result, they remained in the English football second tier. This season, Coventry has had a slow start, only earning seven points from six matches, placing them in 13th position in the league table. Although they lost their first game against Leicester City, they have remained undefeated since, including a 3-0 win over Middlesbrough and draws against Swansea, Sunderland, Watford, and Hull. In their recent game against Hull, Coventry came close to securing a victory but conceded a late equalizer. Despite this setback, Coventry can draw inspiration from their previous narrow victory at Cardiff. However, they will face a challenging opponent who is boosted by their recent win against Swansea.
Coventry City Predicted Lineup
Wilson; Latibeaudiere, McFadzean, Binks; Van Ewijk, Eccles, Kelly, Dasilva; Palmer; Godden, Wright
