Cardiff City Preview – Can Cardiff bounce back in Wales?
After being handed a disappointing 2-0 defeat away from home at Stoke City on the weekend, Tuesday night’s hosts, Cardiff City, will no doubt be eager to bounce back at their Cardiff City Stadium when they entertain Nottingham Forest.
The loss at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday put an end to Cardiff’s solid 7-match sequence without defeat in the Championship, a run of results which had lifted The Bluebirds up into the top half of the second tier and in touch with the play-off pack.
Recent wins against Championship league leaders, West Brom, along with victories over Luton Town and Huddersfield Town as well as picking up points in draws with Swansea City, Birmingham City, Reading and Wigan Athletic have seen Neil Harris’s side become a tough unit to beat in recent weeks.
Cardiff have also lost just once at home all season amidst an overall solid home record of 8-7-1 24/14 which includes being unbeaten in their last 8 matches in their own backyard.
Nottingham Forest Preview – Can Forest break out of slump?
Another disappointing draw saw Nottingham Forest held at home by bottom half outfit QPR at their City Ground on Saturday which became Forest’s second stalemate on the trot following their previous match which ended in a 2-2 draw away at West Brom.
Although the point against The Baggies was an impressive one, Tuesday night’s visitors, Nottingham Forest, would have been extremely disappointed that they didn’t make the most of home advantage on the weekend, and they’ve now registered just 1 win out of their last 5 matches overall in the Championship.
Following an impressive stretch of results from Boxing Day through to the end of January which resulted in Forest winning 5 of their 7 matches during that period, the east midlands outfit have since recorded just 1 further win which was a 2-0 home win against Leeds United.
Forest have also claimed just 2 away wins from their last 7 matches on the road, and this upcoming clash in Wales could provide another stern test for Sabri Lamouchi’s side.
