Cardiff will be looking to move out of the relegation zone when they face struggling Watford at Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday night.

The hosts are currently second-bottom in the Championship with 23 points after 25 games and are two points behind Luton, who are just outside the relegation zone. Despite their poor position in the table, Cardiff have remained unbeaten in their last three league games and have also reached the next round of the FA Cup following their 1-0 win over Sheffield United last Friday.

The visitors, on the other hand, are in a much better position in the league, currently just three points off a play-off place in the battle for promotion to the Premier League. However, they have not been in good form in recent weeks and have lost three games in a row in the league, as well as being knocked out of the FA Cup against Fulham.

Cardiff - Watford Betting Tips: Cardiff to Win or Draw

The home side go into the game following a narrow 1-0 win over Sheffield United in the FA Cup, extending their unbeaten run to four games in all competitions (2W 2D). In contrast, Watford have now lost four games in a row in all competitions, including a 4-1 defeat to Fulham in the FA Cup third round. What is more, Watford have won just twice in 12 away games this season. We therefore expect Cardiff to at least draw or even beat Watford at home on Tuesday night.
