Cardiff City vs Crystal Palace Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

While the Premier League title race looks set to go down to the wire, the relegation places could well be decided before the final round of fixtures.

Latest Odds

Cardiff City's fate will be sealed unless they beat Crystal Palace on Saturday evening with 888Sport going 6/4 (2.50) that the Bluebirds pick up maximum points.

The value though, looks to be in backing a Crystal Palace side who have found plenty of joy on the road this term. Roy Hodgson's side have the sixth best award record in the division at the time of writing, winning three of their last four trips away from Selhurst Park.

While a mid-table finish beckons for the Londoners, they look a worthy selection at 17/10 (2.70) while the draw trades at 27/10 (3.70).

The previous meeting between the pair came on Boxing Day and finished 0-0. That’s a 10/1 (11.0) play this time around.

Team News

The hosts’ injury list includes Sol Bamba, Callum Paterson and Joe Ralls. Goals have proved hard to come by this term, with Cardiff netting just 30 times in 36 matches.

Palace look set to be without the services of Jeffrey Schlupp who is sidelined along with central defenders James Tomkins and Mamadou Sakho.

Preview

Neil Warnock's men have lost eight of their last 10 Premier League games, failing to pick up points regularly despite an increasingly desperate situation in recent weeks.

What's more, only bottom club Huddersfield have lost more home league games than the Bluebirds this season and Palace appear overpriced to keep up their impressive away form.

Tips and Predictions

The Eagles have picked up nine more points on their travels than at Selhurst Park this campaign. At 17/10 (2.70), the away win looks worth backing with 888Sport.

Another punting angle to consider is Wilfried Zaha to score anytime at an industry best price of 5/2 (3.50). The 26-year-old has scored five goals in his last six away matches and eight of his nine Premier League goals this season have come on the road.
