Cardiff City Watford betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

A game that has a huge tendency to be open, since the two teams usually play quite offensive in these conditions. Cardiff play at home and aim to conquer another win in the league, Watford have scored with some regularity, aside from conceding several goals. Having said this and taking into account also the defensive failures of the two teams, to risk in favor of the goals is a good option.
