Cardiff City – 1.36
(A) at Doncaster (PPG at home = 1.47), (H) vs Lincoln City (PPG away = 1.75), (A) at Barnsley (PPG at home = 1.80), (A) at Exeter City (PPG at home = 1.67), (H) vs Wycombe (PPG away = 0.88), (H) vs Blackpool (PPG away = 0.75), (A) at Huddersfield (PPG at home = 2.06), (H) vs Port Vale (PPG away = 0.80), (A) at Peterborough (PPG at home = 1.41), (H) vs Bolton (PPG away = 1.18), (A) at Reading (PPG at home = 1.76), (H) vs Northampton (PPG away = 0.76), (A) at Mansfield (PPG at home = 1.38)
In terms of PPG, they’re level with another promotion candidate, but as they have a game more, their run-in is technically easier, as they have an extra chance to get points.
Their big challenges come against us next weekend, and when travelling to Huddersfield Town. The Bolton and Reading double-header looks tough as well, but Northampton and Mansfield at the end of the season should see them strolling into the Championship at first time of asking.
Nice analysis, would be nice to see the prediction being slightly wrong and us nicking it though. Even better if we give Cardiff a good beating and we both finish on 91 points with us edging it on goal difference!
BTW sometimes it is better to be promoted second and then we still have the fight and less complacency in the next season. It is amazing to see how many champions struggle, while second placed teams go on to thrive!
I don’t know if there could be anything in it, but perhaps it’s best not to be top too soon. Most fans will look at Cardiff as a bigger game than us right now. But you would expect the clubs to utterly professional as they approach each game. I wonder if it influences the players though?
