Mark Lawrenson has us down to lose 2 - 0. I'm sure he does it to get a reaction - that's the only way to keep his job.
I did a bit of searching to find out his history with us: I couldn't find his prediction after 38 games for the season 2013-14 (the season Cardiff appeared in the PL) only after 37 games - in which he had us down in 10th place - so he didn't relegate us that season at least !! He didn't relegate us in 2015-16 either - he had us in 17th.
He's one that believes we should not be in the English Premier League because we are in Wales. He also has little respect for foreign managers and players. Like many English he seems to consider Wales a foreign county ... which suits me.
He wants the traditional big boys and in particular the teams that were up there when he was playing, to be back in the PL. He would rather have Leeds, Villa and Wolves there than Bournemouth, Huddersfield and Swans in top flight. However good they were, he has no concept of teams getting there or staying there on merit. He is a football snob!

C Roberts starts with James on the bench. Nice. Strong team lineup considering the opposition with Mawson and Ki picked. CC clearly wants a win here and nothing more. Very happy to see Narsingh get a run out.
I bet they haven't sold many of those Sheff Weds kits - ugly as sin, lower league written all over it. Elev 8 Lol
A bit embarrassing at present. Has Ki been up late watching theOlympics? Roberts getting a lesson, Abraham running behind players so cutting off chances of a pass. Naughton, Narsingh and Routledge not doing enough
