Recent form
Cardiff City
Cardiff City's recent form has been concerning, with the Bluebirds failing to secure a victory in their last six matches. The Welsh side have drawn four and lost two of their recent fixtures, struggling to find the back of the net with just four goals scored in this period. Their defensive record has been slightly better, conceding seven goals and keeping one clean sheet. Notably, Cardiff have been involved in a series of low-scoring affairs, with five out of their last six matches featuring under 2.5 goals. The team's position of 23rd in the Championship table reflects their poor run of form, and they are currently enduring a six-game winless streak. While there haven't been any particularly high-scoring games in this stretch, the 2-2 draw against Preston stands out as their most productive offensive performance.
West Brom
West Bromwich Albion are currently enduring a poor run of form, having lost five of their last six matches in the Championship. The Baggies find themselves in 10th position with 60 points from 44 games, struggling to keep clean sheets with their last coming eight games ago. Their defensive frailties are evident, conceding 10 goals in the last six matches at an average of 1.67 per game, while only managing to score four goals themselves during this period. The team's most recent outing resulted in a 3-1 home defeat to Derby County, their heaviest loss in this run. West Brom's sole victory in their last six came against Watford, a 2-1 home win, which briefly interrupted a concerning streak of four consecutive losses. The Baggies' goal difference of -6 over these six games highlights their current struggles at both ends of the pitch.

Recent home/away form
Cardiff City
Cardiff City have been struggling for form at home, with only one win in their last six matches at the Cardiff City Stadium. The Bluebirds have managed just two draws and suffered three defeats during this period, highlighting their difficulties in front of their own supporters. Their sole victory came against Hull City in a narrow 1-0 win. Cardiff's goal-scoring woes are evident, as they've netted just five times in these six games, averaging less than a goal per match. Defensively, they've been somewhat vulnerable, conceding seven goals and keeping only one clean sheet. Interestingly, two-thirds of their recent home fixtures have seen both teams score, but the majority have been low-scoring affairs, with 67% featuring under 2.5 goals. This run of poor results has contributed to Cardiff's precarious position in the Championship table, sitting in 23rd place with 43 points from 44 games.
West Brom
West Bromwich Albion's recent away form in the Championship has been concerning, with the Baggies failing to secure a victory in their last six matches on the road. The team are currently experiencing a worrying run of three consecutive away defeats, following a spell of three draws. Notably, West Brom have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only four goals in these six games, averaging a mere 0.67 goals per match. Their defensive record has also been less than stellar, conceding eight goals and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these fixtures. The majority of their away games have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of matches featuring fewer than 2.5 goals. Despite this poor run of form, West Brom have managed to maintain their position in the top half of the table, currently sitting 10th with 60 points from 44 games.
