THE PREDICTION

A thumping 4-0 win over Derby saw Cardiff make it ten games unbeaten since Mick McCarthy joined the club as manager, with seven of those ending in victory for the Bluebirds. Here they travel to a Huddersfield side starting to look nervously over their shoulders at the bottom three, having won just once in their most recent 12 Championship fixtures. The Terriers are currently weighed down by a large number of injuries and this does not bode well vs a side bang in form and riding the crest of a wave. With confidence sky high in the visiting camp, Cardiff should be set to take advantage of the hosts’ injury woes and recent league struggles, so consider them here draw no bet.
