<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Huddersfield and Fulham are starting to look like lost causes but it looks like we're left with a bitter fight to avoid 18th place at season's end with the Bluebirds looking to finish above the likes of Burnley, Southampton, Newcastle and Brighton. The victory at St Marys last time out was a <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">massive boost</strong> and they'll be keen to keep up the momentum but Cardiff haven't won three in-a-row in the top-flight since February 1961.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's a misleading stat though. Cardiff were relegated from the old Division One in 1962 and they didn't reappear in the top-flight until they were promoted to the Premier League in 2013. So, it's only around two and half seasons in the top flight since they won three on the trot and they've already won as many Premier League games this season (7/26) as they did when relegated back to the Championship in the 2013/14 season (7/38).</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cardiff are doing better than many pundits thought they would but <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">will this rally last?</strong></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In contrast to Cardiff, <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Watford are enjoying a very successful season</strong>. They're safe from relegation worries, in to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup (where they'll host Crystal Palace), and they're sitting comfortably in eighth place in the Premier League.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Having started the season brilliantly, winning their first four games, the Hornets hit the buffers, winning just two of their next 11, away at Wolves and at home to bottom club, Huddersfield, but since losing 2-1 at home to Manchester City on December 4, Watford have lost just two of the next 11, 2-1 at home to Chelsea and 2-1 away at Spurs.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We've seen the odd strange result (3-3 at Bournemouth for example) but Watford are less erratic than they were and defensively, they've improved massively. They've kept a clean sheet in three of their last four Premier League games and that's as many as they'd kept in their previous 21! And if we expand that to include FA Cup ties, they've actually <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">kept a clean sheet in six of their last eight in all competitions</strong> since the barmy Bournemouth draw on January 2 and the only team, other than Spurs, to breach the Hornets defence is Crystal Palace, and that was an own goal in a 2-1 Watford win at Selhurst Park. The Hornets are flying and they're worth backing at around 6/4.<br /><br /><strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"></strong></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Watford won the reverse fixture 3-2 in December and they beat Cardiff 4-2 away on the last occasion they met in the Championship in December 2014 but that was the only league defeat they'd managed to inflict on Cardiff in six visits to the Welsh capital.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Despite losing their last two, Cardiff have a decent recent record against Friday's visitors and prior to those two wins, the Hornets had won just one of their previous 12 encounters in the Championship with Cardiff, dating back to 2007. I'm not convinced we can read an awful lot in to that though and it's interesting to note that prior to that poor run, Watford had the upper hand. Between 2003 and 2008, the Hornets were unbeaten in eight against the Bluebirds.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In total, Cardiff have won 22, Watford 20 and there have been 14 draws between the two clubs but the results have gone in runs and it looks like <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">momentum is with Watford</strong> at present.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It feels uncomfortable and maybe even disrespectful to consider the effect of the Emiliano Sala tragedy on the Cardiff team but in the three games prior to the crash on January 21, Cardiff lost 1-0 to Gillingham in the FA Cup, drew 0-0 at home to a dire Huddersfield side and they lost 3-0 at Newcastle. They looked in a real mess but since the tragedy, they've lost narrowly away at Arsenal (2-1) and they've beaten both Bournemouth and Southampton.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since the awful tragedy, <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Cardiff have rallied quite remarkably</strong> but how long that rally can be maintained is debatable as the story inevitably moves on. How and when the payments will be made for the transfer and the details of the plane booking are now the narrative, with Sala's agent, Willie McKay, accusing Cardiff of <span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(187, 187, 187); border-image: initial; border-left-color: initial; border-left-style: initial; border-right-color: initial; border-right-style: initial; border-top-color: initial; border-top-style: initial; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><b>"trying to throw me under the bus"</b></span>. It's <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">messy as well as heart-breaking</strong> now.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Both sides are in solid form of late but Watford's is built on firm foundations whereas it could be surmised that Cardiff's is built on emotion. Watford are without doubt a far better team than Cardiff, they've scored as many away from home as have at Vicarage Road this season, they've conceded less on the road than they have at home and if they win on Friday night, they will have accrued an equal amount of points at home and away (20).</span></div>

<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Hammers are without a win in five games (D2 L3), but there last two games have been drawn. A 1-1 draw with Premier League title contenders <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Liverpool</strong> was followed by a useful point at Crystal Palace, leaving West Ham in need of a win, yet showing some signs of improvement.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Struggling Fulham could therefore be the perfect opponents for West Ham at this stage of the season. Especially as after this match the East Londoners face a difficult away trip to <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Manchester City</strong>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As has been the case for most of the campaign, West Ham are having to deal with a large number of injured players. Fabian Balbuena, Winston Reid, Carlos Sanchez, Jack Wilshere and <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Andriy Yarmolenko</strong> are all out, while Manuel Lanzini and Samir Nasri are doubts.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When Fulham appointed <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Claudio Ranieri</strong> in November, they described him as 'risk free'. Some weeks later, they might now wish to revisit that claim.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 640px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For Fulham have only won three of the fifteen matches they've played since Ranieri took charge (D3 L9). He has been unable to improve Fulham defensively, with the club having conceded more than any other team in the <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Premier League</strong> this season.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eight points away from safety, Fulham look doomed to a return to the Championship. Should they return, it's likely that they will lose their brightest talents, with Aleksandar Mitrovic having scored enough top flight goals to stay in the Premier League and their homegrown winger <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Ryan Sessegnon</strong> forced out of the side for the short-term signing of the veteran Ryan Babel.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ranieri will be without the injured Marcus Bettinelli and <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Lazar Markovic</strong> for this London derby.

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It says something for how badly Fulham are playing, that a West Ham side without a win in five are rated at odds-on to claim victory.

The Central Coast Mariners, who have been abysmal for almost every season in recent memory, also drew with Sydney FC.

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1rem;">
<span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Could Victory end coach Joyce’s reign? </span></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1rem;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Melbourne City were absolutely terrible against the Newcastle Jets, there’s no two ways about it. They controlled possession, but like they’ve done all year played far too slowly and lacked the required forward drive to pressure their hosts. This has been a complaint throughout Warren Joyce’s reign as coach and it’s being reported a poor showing or a loss in the Melbourne Derby could see him sacked. So, of course, City will respond. But it feels as though Victory will rise to this challenge. They were superb last week without Ola Toivonen and 90 minutes of Keisuke Honda to get a draw away to Wellington Phoenix. Toivonen is in the frame to return this week, so Victory will be too good. Kosta Barbarouses, the pacy Kiwi winger, will be licking his lips having seen how City were exposed by speed on the counter attack last week.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: bolder;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It’ll all catch up with the Jets</span></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1rem;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Newcastle were superb in beating Melbourne City given they’d played a mid-week Asian Champions League game at home. They had another this week, but had to go all the way to Japan to play it, where they lost to Kashima Antlers. It’ll be a fair effort for them to back up and home against Adelaide after all that international travel, but they’re on a roll at the moment – despite the ACL loss to highly regarded opponents they played well – and will be fighting for every point to make sure they play finals. They’re now six points adrift of a post-season spot. As for Adelaide, they squandered a golden opportunity to stay in touch with the top three by losing to Brisbane Roar, Craig Goodwin’s shock penalty miss symptomatic of the fact it just wasn’t their night. They’ll be better this week, a job made easier by the Jets travel, but Ernie Merric’s side will dig in at home for a draw.</span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1rem;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Two wins on the trot is pretty good for a team, like the Wanderers, that’s under pressure. Especially with the last one an upset. But they aren’t going to cause two upsets in a row, especially against Perth Glory, who are in imperious touch and look like the runaway favorite to win the minor-premiership given they’re nine points clear of Melbourne Victory in second. A lot is going right for the Glory, who’ve recruited so well (Neil Kilkenny and Chris Ikonimidis have been stand outs this season) while those who’ve hung around the club for a few years like Andy Keogh and Diego Castro have caused the opposition all sorts of problems. Juande in midfield has been an underrated player for the Glory this year two, and he’s made Kilkenny look a better player a lot of the time. Tony Popovic has worked wonders with the Glory, and it’s all going to play in the west.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The struggling Germans, who reached this stage by finishing runners-up to Porto in what looked the weakest of the eight groups, would appear to stand little chance of preventing City reaching the quarter-finals given their miserable season. It is one which sees them <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">sitting a lowly 14th in the Bundesliga</strong> having won just six of their 22 games so far, losing 11.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">City certainly have the potential to worsen that record, particularly when you consider <strong style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">they've scored 49 times and conceded only six during a run which has seen them win 12 of their last 13 games</strong>.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They were utterly dominant away to Shakhtar Donetsk earlier in the season, winning 3-0, while at this stage of last season's competition they went to Basel and smashed the Swiss 4-0.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maybe a solid defensive effort could earn them a draw at <span class="inline-odds" style="border-radius: 2px; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 3px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline;" title="11/2"><span style="border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-style: initial; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><b>6.40</b></span></span> - City will know that with the home leg to come, such a result would be far from disastrous.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">City could clearly click into goal mode once more - I'm far from ruling it out - but given the circumstances I'd prefer to look for some longer-odds plays in other markets, bets which will still stand, indeed be improved, if City do go goal crazy again.</span></div>
