Cardiff City, Recent FormCardiff City will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 away win against Watford. They achieved 38% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Watford's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Erol Bulut will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 4 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
They've had a terrible run of form at Cardiff City Stadium recently and having lost 4 of their last 6 home games managing just 1 win.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Cardiff City, Aaron Ramsey will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Preston North End, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-2 home win over Ipswich Town in their last league game, Preston North End will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with a 34% share of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Ipswich Town, who managed 25 attempts on goal, 9 of which were on target.
Ryan Lowe will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 26 of their 30 games overall.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Goalscorer Will Keane will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 6 goals in his last 6 league matches for Preston North End.
It was one to forget for Preston North End last time they met Cardiff City in the league, falling to a 1-2 defeat.
Cardiff will be looking to extend their current run of 4 clean sheets against The Lilywhites at Cardiff City Stadium.
When playing away from home in the league, Preston have failed to win any of their last 4 meetings with Cardiff, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
Cardiff manager Erol Bulut has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Callum O'Dowda (Leg), Joe Ralls (Groin) and Aaron Ramsey (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Preston manager Ryan Lowe has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
