Cardiff City will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Southampton. They achieved 38% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Southampton's tally of 21 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 7 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
They have had a good run of form at Cardiff City Stadium recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.

The Middlesbrough squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 4-3 home defeat against Leeds United, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 67% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Leeds United who had 8 attempts and 5 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 11 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 19 of their 22 away games this season.
There will be mixed feelings from The Boro, having been undefeated in their last 5 away league games, but drawn the last 3 of these games.
On an individual basis, Emmanuel Latte Lath will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 7 goals in Middlesbrough's last 6 league games.
Cardiff City vs. Middlesbrough Head to head
When these two teams last met in the league it was a 2-0 win for Middlesbrough.
The Boro will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Cardiff having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 8 meetings. We've seen plenty of goals from Middlesboro when they've visited The Bluebirds in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 6 goals, which is an average of 2 per game.
In the league, Middlesboro has a good track record when they travel to Cardiff, getting the better of them to win their last 2 games.
Cardiff manager Erol Bulut has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jak Alnwick (Leg), Kion Etete (Leg), Mark McGuinness (Hamstring), Callum O'Dowda (Hamstring), Aaron Ramsey (Strain) and Josh Wilson-Esbrand (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Middlesbrough Injury News
With both Darragh Lenihan (Achilles tendon) and Tommy Smith (Achilles tendon) being out for the rest of the season and Josh Coburn (Groin), Marcus Forss (Hamstring), Dael Fry (Groin), Hayden Hackney (Leg), Riley McGree (Foot) and Paddy McNair (Hamstring) all unavailable in the shorter term, Middlesboro manager Michael Carrick will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
