A Sports Betting Preview by ArmchairPunter
Football : England: League One
Venue: Cardiff City Stadium
Saturday 24th January 2026, 1230hrs (GMT)
Cardiff City bring a solid and impressive looking six-game unbeaten run into this vitally important clash with fellow high-flyers Stockport County with the Welsh hosts looking to not only extend their unbeaten sequence but also put further daylight between themselves and the chasing pack.
Cardiff City have collected four wins within their last six matches in the domestic third tier with victories gained at the expense of Exeter City, Stevenage, Wigan Athletic and Bradford City respectively.
The Bluebirds also hold the best home record in League One with stats of 11-0-2 30/15 under their belts ahead of this crucial encounter at their Cardiff City Stadium but Brian Barry-Murphy’s side may not get things all their own way on Saturday lunchtime as they will be up against a stubborn Stockport County outfit.
Stockport County sit in 4th place in the League One table and Dave Challinor’s side will also fancy their chances of a result in Wales on Saturday having won their last three matches on the trot with league wins against Huddersfield Town and Rotherham United, along with a EFL Trophy victory over Harrogate Town.
With just two defeats in their last eight matches overall, Stockport County will be no pushovers on Saturday lunchtime especially as The Hatters have collected four league wins within this recent period along with possessing the second-best away record in the division.
An away record of 6-3-3 17/14 suggests Stockport County are expected to make life difficult for their Welsh hosts as both teams seek to add points to their respective tallies and strengthen their claims for possible promotion to the Championship.
The Betting Verdict
The earlier corresponding fixture resulted in a 1-1 stalemate and both sides may cancel each other out again on Saturday in a low-scoring encounter.
