THE PREDICTION
A goal deep into injury time from Watford’s Adam Masina condemned Cardiff to a 1-2 defeat at the hands of the Hornets this past weekend, their first loss under the management of Mick McCarthy. Here, the Bluebirds look to get back on track vs Stoke. The Potters were subject to a comprehensive 3-0 beating away at Middlesbrough last time out and with Michael O’Neill’s currently 11th in the table having lost four of their last five Championship games, it feels like their season is starting to very much peter out. Cardiff with home advantage in their favour, should be set to take advantage here and get their playoff push back on track with an important victory.
