Cardiff vs Leeds – Betting tips & odds
Hot Tip – Both Teams to Score (3/4)
- Three of Cardiff’s last four Championship fixtures featured goals from both teams.
- Leeds managed to secure just one clean sheet in their last five Championship away tussles.
Leeds look like prime promotion contenders this season, though the Yorkshireman have let their standards slip on the road of late and their return of one clean sheet from five away assignments suggests they will concede at Cardiff. The visitors are the fourth-highest scorers in the Championship however, and our opening Cardiff vs Leeds prediction tips them to bite back in Wales.
