Blackpool v Cardiff Betting Tips, Preview and Prediction

Crisis club Blackpool face managerless Cardiff City in Friday night’s fix of Championship football and we have free football tips for tonight.

There are protests planned and walkouts scheduled, but hopefully it won’t distract the players enough to skew the result either way. Blackpool gained a very creditable draw on Tuesday night against Middlesbrough and it is a platform to build upon, but I think they may have to wait for their first 3 points of the season. 

Tonight's Blackpool v Cardiff Prediction:

Cardiff have drawn their last 3 away games in the Championship, making them very difficult to beat and it can see it being 4 in a row at Bloomfield Road. 

A point would take Blackpool onto 4 points from 11 games, which is a poor return, but when you consider that they are still miles behind every team in the division in terms of fitness and the togetherness of the squad, they are starting to crawl towards their first victory. 

The problem is cutting edge, only 5 goals this season would suggest a goalscorer is required on the Fylde Coast, but with the transfer window closed and Premier League clubs unwilling to send their youngsters to a club sitting at the bottom of the division, it will be difficult to find the back of the net. 

A draw is definitely on the cards, it is available at 12/5 with Bet365 and looks the most realistic result with both sides being unable to finish teams off. My first Blackpool v Cardiff betting tip is the result to be a draw at 12/5 Bet365 who wil double your first deposit up to £200 when you register here.

As previously mentioned Blackpool haven’t scored more than 1 goal in a game since their 2-0 victory over Wigan at the end of last season. Cardiff have Kenwyne Jones, but Fredrico Macheda and Adam Le Fondre haven’t been as potent as Cardiff fans would have hoped. They could also benefit from a run of games. All this points towards an under 2.5 goals prediction in the game with another 1-1 draw looking the most likely of results. 8/11 with Sky Bet is the standout price. 

Ishmael Miller is a striker who is undoubtedly talented, but can look laboured at times and occasionally disinterested. He scored his first goal of the season in midweek and is hungry for more. He said he would like more goals and I am willing to believe him and fancy him to score anytime tonight. He is available at 9/2 with Betfred to net during the 90 minutes.

Ishmael Miller anytime goalscorer is 9/2 and Betfred and if you open a new account you get the odds on your first bet doubled – register here.
