THE PREDICTION

Cardiff travel to high flying Watford with a new found belief after 4-0 and 3-0 wins respectively this week, breathing new life into what had been a stagnating season. The Hornets meanwhile, missed the opportunity to go top of the table in midweek after drawing 0-0 with Nottingham Forest. Back at home, their confidence infront of goal should grow immensely having scored ten goals in their last three league games at Vicarage Road. With Cardiff scoring freely themselves, this could lead to another cracker in Hertfordshire and over 2.5 goals scored must be strongly considered here.
