Cardiff City have a home game against Wolves tonight the game live on Sky Sports kick-off 8pm. Wolves were promoted champions from the Championship last season along with us and made a massive splash in the summer transfer market spending well over 100million compared with a modest 28million by Cardiff. Neil Warnock says keeping Cardiff in the Premier League this season would be 10 times better than earning promotion last season but within the game Cardiff are given no chance of surviving.
The bad blood between the managers, that surfaced after April’s 1-0 victory by Wolves over Cardiff has disappeared after Cardiff boss Neil Warnock reacted furiously to Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo running onto the pitch at the end of the match at the last meeting of the two clubs. It led to Warnock refusing the customary end of the game handshake. All friends now and there will be handshakes a plenty tonight. In the reverse fixture last season, Cardiff beat Wolves 2-1 at their ground.
Wolves lost at home to Huddersfield last weekend, a major shock losing 2-0 while Cardiff lost 1-0 at Everton. So how does the king of predictions call the game Mark Lawrenson, a score draw while his guest even if I did not like most of his films Dolph Lundgren, gives Cardiff a 2-0 win. Robbie Savage true to form dishing out a defeat for the Welshman.
Cardiff manager Neil Warnock has hinted he will make changes with three games in eight days looming. West Ham away Tuesday night 7:45pm kick-off and on Saturday home to Southampton. I reckon there are points to be had in the next three games.
Josh Murphy will likely be recalled, the winger dropped to the bench for the 1-0 defeat at Everton last weekend. The BBC are reporting Nathaniel Mendez-Laing, Jazz Richards, and Gary Madine are being assessed after recent injuries but Kenneth Zohore is still struggling with a calf injury.
Cardiff are in the hat for the third round of the FA Cup Monday with the draw live on BBC2 7pm. I love the FA Cup a nice cup run would be nice but the Premier League will take priority which is fair enough.
