Crewe U21 vs Cardiff U21 tips and predictions

Crazy to look past Crewe U21?

It's been hypothesised by a few pundits that one of these sides has something of a weakness at the back. If it materialises it could be exploited here. Conventional wisdom says that when these sides meet they are bound to produce some goals. But that doesn't mean there's value in the prices.

Looking elsewhere there's been previews by analysts aggrandising the visitors but that short price is a vibe killer.

Crewe U21 can take some reassurance from the results they've posted leading up to this clash. The hosts have bagged 2 wins in their last 6 matches. With less fortune than they'd want the travelling side has lost 9 of their last 20 matches, home or away. For such a short priced team, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this.

Crewe U21 will need to concentrate on the positives of their recent performances. The hosts are playing some decent stuff and things are really coming together. They scored three or more goals in 3 of their recent 8 matches.

Cardiff U21 have sometimes lost their shape away from home. As a result they've conceded an average of 3.1 goals in their last 12 matches away from their own turf. The supposed problems don't end there. The attacking form shown by the visitors has been short of quality. They averaged just 1.1 goals in their last 13 matches.

It might be a turn-up for the books just to see the sides finish with the stalemate. The sportsbooks are predicting goals at both ends of the park despite the favouritism for Cardiff U21. But with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that makes more sense.
