Cardiff halted a determined Port Vale side last time out, as the Bluebirds won 1-0 at the Cardiff City Stadium. That result keeps them second in the standings, and they come into this clash in a rich vein of form.
Cardiff are unbeaten in any of their last six matches, and second place has been locked in. Their home form has been a key reason for their success this season, as they have won 16 of their 22 home matches in the league, with 45 goals scored in that time.
Northampton’s form hasn’t been anywhere near as encouraging, and their relegation has already been confirmed. They sit rock bottom of the League One standings, having lost each of their last nine matches on the bounce, and this promises to be another tough task for them. The reverse fixture finished 3-1 to Cardiff.
