We said: Cardiff City 1-1 Wigan Athletic

With both sides likely to be afraid of losing what could prove to be a relegation six-pointer, we can envisage a low-scoring draw at the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday. The Bluebirds have failed to score in four of their last seven league matches, while Wigan are yet to score twice in any of Toure's six matches in charge, suggesting that goals could come at a premium in this game.
