Match Analysis

Cardiff travel to Exeter as clear favourites, sitting 2nd in the table with a strong away record and a much superior goal difference. Exeter are mid-table, winless in their last five, and have conceded heavily lately. Cardiff's attack has been prolific, and while Exeter have struggled for wins, they have managed to score regularly. Expect Cardiff to control the game, but Exeter's attacking threat means both teams could get on the scoresheet. A relatively open game is likely, with Cardiff's promotion push providing extra motivation.

  • Cardiff are 2nd in League One, Exeter are 15th.

  • Cardiff average 1.94 goals scored per game this season, Exeter 1.14.
