Cardiff has had an awful start to the season, as they are at the bottom of the table after three matches. However, they did score their first point last time out in the South Wales Derby against Derby. Before this, they took a 2-0 loss to Sunderland on the opening weekend, before losing 5-0 to Burnley. They will now face Middlesbrough in a tough matchup.
Cardiff’s defence is vulnerable, which means this match will have a lot of goals. The home side held Swansea to only one goal at the weekend, but permitted seven in the previous two. This should give Boro enough confidence to get back on track with three points. Emmanuel Lath was the top scorer for the club last season with 16, and will want to add to his goal scored so far.

Meanwhile, Middlesbrough, have endured a mixed start to the season, with a win, draw and loss. Their last match was a 2-2 draw at Portsmouth, where they came from behind twice to steal a point, and a 90th minute equaliser.
Defensively, Boro have permitted only three goals, and will expect their struggling attack to do better. They had the same experience last year, scoring 53 across the season. No player from Middlesbrough found the back of the net more than six times. New loan signing Wilfried Kanga will want to get off the mark in the league as he looks to build on a season where he scored 12 goals for Belgian Club Standard Liege.
MatchPlug Prediction For Cardiff VS Middlesbrough
Cardiff endured a bad start to the season, while Middlesbrough have enjoyed a victory and a draw in their first three. Cardiff’s trouble will continue at Cardiff City Stadium with an easy Boro win.
Final Prediction: Middlesbrough Moneyline.
