Cardiff MET look the sturdier side by the numbers, and there's just enough in the table and recent form to lean their way at home. It's not a case of one team being miles ahead of the other, though.
Given how close this fixture has been historically, protecting against a repeat of one of those tight scorelines makes more sense than a straight match-winner bet.
