Match preview
Two sides in the midst of altogether contrasting spells of form are set to go head-to-head in a Championship clash at the Cardiff City Stadium this Saturday, February 11th.
The matchup in question will see relegation-battling Cardiff City act as hosts, in a meeting with promotion-chasing Middlesbrough.
Starting with the former, Cardiff are currently in the midst of nothing short of a nightmare stretch of form.
Remarkably, the Welsh giants have failed to secure a single three-point haul since all the way back in November.
A lack of finished product in the final third has proven particularly detrimental of late, with Sabri Lamouchi’s troops, despite running a relatively tight ship at the back, simply failing to produce in front of goal time and time again.
In fact, dating back to Boxing Day, Cardiff have pieced together a grand total of 1 (yes, one) goal, across seven outings.
It should therefore come as little surprise to hear of Lamouchi and co. being firmly entrenched in the relegation zone, sitting clear of basement dwellers Wigan Athletic by just a solitary point.

And, if the form table is anything to go by, then, in truth, Cardiff’s woes look altogether unlikely to be eased this weekend, either.
This comes with upcoming opponents Middlesbrough having long emerged as one of the Championship’s standout performers.
Themselves once viewed as potential candidates for the drop, under the watch of Michael Carrick, Boro have surged away from the bottom three, all the way to the dizzying heights of 3rd.
This has come by way of a head-turning nine wins from 11, dating back to the far side of the World Cup break.
Since a rare defeat at the hands of Sunderland late last month, Carrick and co. have since showcased their defiant spirit, too, in rattling off a pair of successive victories, by a combined scoreline of five goals to nil.
We at 101, in turn, are backing Middlesbrough as overwhelming favourites to emerge on the right side of the scoreline, come the full-time whistle at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday evening.
Beyond the result, keep an eye on Chuba Akpom when it comes to potential goalscorers, too, with the former Arsenal talent sitting pretty atop the Golden Boot chart in England’s 2nd tier, fresh off finding the net thrice in his last two appearances.
