Wigan vs Cardiff City Prediction: Draw or Cardiff win is the most likely scenario for the game

Wigan is set to host Cardiff on Saturday at DW Stadium. Cardiff has lost five of their eight league visits to Wigan. Would Cardiff be able to beat Wigan this time?

Wigan didn't win a single home (L2 D3) league game yet this season. They lost their 2nd home game against Reading (1-0) in the last match. Earlier Burnley crushed them by (1-5).

In their five home league games, they just scored 3 goals and conceded 8 in return. At away, they are doing extremely well (W3 D1 L2) as they won 3 out of 5 league games.

With 16 points in 11 games, Wigan is sitting in the 12th position. They have netted 12 goals so far this season and conceded 13 in return. Will Keane is the team’s top scorer with 5 goals followed by James McClean (1) and Callum Lang (1) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions.

At away, Cardiff City's performance is below average this season (W1 D1 L4) as they just managed to win one out of six league games.

They registered their first away win of the season against Huddersfield (3-2) in a very close encounter. In their 6 away league games, they just scored 4 goals against their hosts and conceded 7 in return.

At home, Cardiff is doing well as they managed (W3 L1 D2) to win 3 out of 6 league games. With 15 points in 12 games, Cardiff is sitting in 12th position. They have netted 9 goals so far this season and conceded 12 in return.

Callum O’Dowda is the team’s top scorer with 2 goals and 2 assists followed by Romaine Sawyers (2) and Mark Harris (2) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions.

Wigan’s poor home form could work wonders for Cardiff. Wigan defeated Cardiff (3-2) in their last meeting at DW, but their current situation is telling a different story. After analyzing all the facts, we are anticipating a tie here or a Cardiff win. In this match, we can expect more than 2.5 goals.
