Recent respective form guides
Barnsley may have lost only 1 of their last six home games, but the other 5 have resulted in drawn games. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 in the wrong end.
Cardiff City's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Bluebirds have hit 6 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
