Analysis Cardiff

The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round) after having eliminated: Mansfield Town. They come to this match after a away draw against Sheffield Wednesday by (0‑0). Cardiff City has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 18 home matches for all competitions: they have scored 10 of their 28 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Cardiff comes to this game with a draw against Sheffield Wednesday, adding the fourth straight game without losing in several competitions. We remember that the locals beat Mansfield in the previous round of the FA Cup. The Neil Warnock-oriented set exhibits several flaws in the style of play, especially in the defensive sector: set pieces and attack-defense transition. To face a much superior team, Cardiff should come up with a more cautious strategy, exploiting only the counterattacks. Junior Hoilett is Cardiff's top scorer in all competitions with 8 goals scored. For this game the home coach does not have Connolly, Peltier and Gunnarsson, all injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Neil Etheridge, Jazz Richards, Joe Bennett, Callum Paterson, Sean Morrison, Bruno Ecuele Manga, Marko Grujić, Joe Ralls, Kenneth Zohore, Nathaniel Mendez-Laing, Junior Hoilett.
Coach: M. Hudson.

In the last 10 away matches Manchester City has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have turned the score around in 3.

Manchester City leaves for the game with a 2-3 away win over Bristol, thus securing passage to the next round of the English League Cup. We should point out that the the away is having a great time, having only one defeat in the last ten games. In this away game, coach Pep Guardiola should keep the team in 4-3-3 privileging possession of the ball and the attacks organized through the runners: Leroy Sané is a very fast and strong player in the offensive transition. Looking at the individual performance of each player it is possible to verify that the Argentine Agüero is the best scorer of Manchester City with 23 goals scored. For this game the coach can not count on Gabriel Jesus, Deph and Mendy, all injured.
