REVIEW Blackpool vs Cardiff City
IDDAAKOLIK POST-MATCH REVIEW

Blackpool took care of Cardiff City 3-1. The game was level at 0-0 at the break, so the decisive goals came after it.

Our pre-match lean was Cardiff City at 49%, but a lead that slim is closer to a coin-flip than a call — and it fell the other way.

The goals picture was genuinely open: 46% for over 2.5, 50% on both teams scoring. If anything the market was more convinced: the over-2.5 price stood at 1.89, roughly 53%.

By the numbers, Cardiff City saw more of the ball, 66% to 34%, shots finished 19-28, expected goals 2.16 to 2.18.

Coming into the game, across their last 6 meetings in our records, Cardiff City led the recent series with 3 wins, 2 drawn. Scoring in those meetings ran 1.00 a game for Blackpool against 1.67 for Cardiff City.
