Wrexham continue to impress. The team currently sit 16th in the Championship, yet they've managed to avoid defeat in 8 of their last 10 matches. Their climb up the table is hindered by a string of draws, with the Dragons notching up four in the past month alone.

Their next game against Preston (3-2) nearly ended in a stalemate as well, but Kieffer Moore's stoppage-time goal secured the win.

Cardiff Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the League One tournament (home team - Bolton Wanderers, away - Cardiff ). The match concluded with a scoreline of 1:0.
Here are the match stats (Cardiff vs Bolton Wanderers):
- ball possession: 62% vs 38%;
- corner kicks: 3 vs 7;
- fouls: 11 vs 13;

Cardiff sit in second place in League One, but their current form leaves much to be desired, as evidenced by three losses in their last five matches. All three defeats were goalless, ending with the same 0-1 scoreline.
In the League Cup, the Bluebirds had a stroke of luck with their opponents in the initial rounds, as they faced teams from League Two, the fourth tier of English football. However, the competition got significantly tougher in the previous round. In a closely contested match, Brian Barry-Murphy's side managed to secure an away victory against Burnley (2-1).

Editorial Prediction
Wrexham have recently seen a dip in their scoring form compared to their bright start to the season. It's no surprise that the Dragons' last high-scoring game was over a month ago. Cardiff, on the other hand, have only scored more than once in two of their last seven away matches, so we're not expecting fireworks from them either, and we're going with under 2.5 goals. We anticipate a narrow home victory, possibly a 1-0 win, in a game short on chances.
