Cardiff City U21 form and stats

Cardiff City U21 have played 11 Professional Development League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-0-4 (wins-draws-losses).

A nice win for Cardiff last time playing, versus Ipswich Town U21. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-2. Finally, a league win after three matches without. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Ipswich Town U21 (1-4).

Lots of goals? Nobody knows about this one, but we do know that 18 of the 23 most recent league games with this team has contained at least three goals.

Cardiff City U21 can score goals in their home matches. After 11 league matches they have found the net 25 times.

Sheffield Wednesday U21 form and stats

There's been little loot from Sheffield Wednesday U21's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 11 away games in the Professional Development League. Sheffield Wednesday U21 only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. With the Sheffield Wednesday U21 losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

Sheffield might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Barnsley U21 proved too strong as Sheffield Wednesday U21 slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Birmingham City U21.

Sheffield Wednesday U21 have conceded 20 goals in these games.
