The relegated Cardiff from the Championship is on its way back to a return. It leads the standings in the lower League 1, and on the eve of this quarter-final match in the English League Cup, it looks to be in good form. Cardiff has five consecutive victories in the league, having won its last five home matches as well. Moreover, over 2.5 goals have been scored in 13 out of 15 home games for the team since the start of the season across all competitions.
Chelsea returned to winning ways with a 2-0 home victory over Everton over the weekend, after going four matches without success in all competitions. It is now clear that Enzo Maresca will make some rotations. He and his players should still keep one thing in mind, as in the 1/16 finals of the tournament in September, Chelsea had to make a comeback against another League 1 team, Lincoln, to achieve a 2-1 victory.
Prediction: Chelsea to win and over 2.5 goalsCardiff looks to be in good form, but the difference between the two teams is clear. Ultimately, I expect Chelsea to achieve its goal, but there will be rotations, and I do not rule out the possibility of conceding a goal or seeing over 2.5 goals in the match, which would not be new, especially for Cardiff.
