Tomorrow, Sunday the 25th of August at 16pm British time Cardiff City will face Manchester City in their second Premier League match of the season. The Welsh side will be playing at home in front of their fans. On paper Manchester City should win this match easily but as we will know the beauty of football is that it’s not predictable.
Cardiff City lost their opening Premier League match against West Ham therefore it is imperative for them that they manage a result tomorrow to obtain their first points and to boost the morale of the environment. Following promotion they reinforced their squad with some quality signings but they still face an uphill task in trying to get anything against Manchester City. On the other hand Manchester City are currently on a high following their great start to the the Premier League. In their first match they won convincingly 4-0 against Newcastle. They will definitely want another three points tomorrow to show that they are genuine title contenders. The only way Manchester City may miss out on a win is by being overconfident as in Cardiff City they will definitely be facing an attentive side that will be waiting for the right moment to attack.
We believe that Manchester City won’t disappoint expectations and will win comfortably against Cardiff City. Although Cardiff City will be playing at home we don’t believe that they have enough quality to realistically obtain something from this match.
