The Match

Preview

We said: West Bromwich Albion 2-1 Cardiff City

Despite their strong start, goals are not Cardiff's strong point, and that may not stand them in good stead against a team such as West Brom who are playing om home territory. While the Baggies are having their own issues in the final third, we still feel that they will have enough quality to claim all three points. Read more.
