Match preview: Blackburn vs Cardiff
Blackburn and Cardiff will clash at Ewood Park for the 38th round of the Championship. In their last encounter in this competition on 9th November 2024, Blackburn Rovers triumphed with a score of 3-1. Historically, this venue favours the home team, with Blackburn claiming 3 wins and a draw from their last 4 confrontations here. The last meeting at this stadium took place on 21st October 2023, where Blackburn Rovers emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline, thanks to Joe Rankin-Costello’s goal in the 53rd minute. The home advantage may play a crucial role since Cardiff shows significant discrepancies in their home and away performances.
Team analysis: Blackburn
The home team is currently in 9th place, having amassed 52 points through 15 wins, 7 draws, and 15 losses. In their second-to-last match, they lost 2-1 to Derby County. More recently, they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Stoke City. This squad is relatively unaffected by home advantage, as they have similar results whether playing at home or away; over the last 30 matches, they record 6 wins, 1 draw, and 8 losses as visitors, scoring 13 goals and conceding 15, compared to 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses at home with 14 goals scored and 14 conceded. Blackburn’s last 10 home games in the Championship resulted in 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, earning them 17 points out of a possible 30. Frequent outcomes at Ewood Park in the Championship include a 0-0 scoreline at half-time, which occurred in 8 of their 18 matches. They have conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 matches, indicating a lack of defensive solidity, but their attack has found the net regularly, achieving this in 7 of their last 10 outings in this competition. Across 37 matches, they conceded the first goal 19 times and managed to turn the match around only once.
Despite entering the match demotivated after a 1-0 defeat at the Stake Stadium, Blackburn typically deploys a 3-4-3 formation focusing on a controlled style of play through central areas. Their attacking trio comprises Todd Cantwell, Yuki Ohashi, and Makhtar Gueye, with Lewis Travis orchestrating play from midfield. Unfortunately, the following players will miss the match due to injuries: Scott Wharton, Harry Leonard, Danny Batth, John Buckley, Harry Pickering, Andreas Wemann, Augustus Kargbo, Ryan Hedges, and Owen Beck.
Team analysis: Cardiff
The visiting team occupies 21st place, having gathered 36 points with 8 wins, 12 draws, and 17 losses. In their penultimate match, they fell to Sunderland 2-1, and more recently, they lost at home to Luton Town with a score of 1-2. Cardiff is particularly stronger when playing at home, having recorded just 2 wins, 7 draws, and 6 losses in their last 30 away matches compared to 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses on home soil. Out of their last 10 matches in the Championship away from home, Cardiff has managed just 1 victory, alongside 5 draws and 4 losses, amassing a mere 8 points from 30 available. The team has conceded goals in 9 of their last 10 matches, reflecting a lack of defensive consistency, yet their attack has frequently scored, managing to find the net in 9 out of their last 10 games. Over the course of 37 matches, they’ve conceded the first goal 21 times and have turned the score around only once.
Cardiff arrives at this match on the back of a 2-1 defeat to Luton Town, where the team’s only goal was scored by Calum Chambers. The visiting side is likely to field a 4-3-3 formation, with Will Alves, Yousef Salech, and Rubin Colwill leading the offensive front. Cardiff tends to exploit the right flank, taking advantage of the width provided by full-back Perry NG. The team will be without the services of Ollie Tanner, Aaron Ramsey, Joe Ralls, and Jak Alnwick due to injuries.
