Cardiff City was not a high scoring team last year and they were second to last in goals overall with Norwich and now they are looking to get things going after losing all but one of their last nine games of the season. The last time the team won was back in April against Southampton towards the end of the season and now they are trying to get it going here as Cardiff City comes into things.
Cardiff City has to deal with Blackburn after the Rovers have won five of their last seven in the league and Cardiff City has won four of the last six games on opening day. The team hopes to get started on the right track and this will be a matchup ahead of the next time the two teams play later in the season. Cardiff City hopes this is a short stay and they will try and get back up to the Premier League and a good chance to get that going will be with a win here.
