The best prices across 3 UK bookmakers are 2.90 for Bradford, 3.50 for the draw and 2.30 for Cardiff. The bookmakers make Cardiff City favourites, at about 41% once the margin is taken out.

Our prediction: Bradford City to win, with a 38% chance. The market puts it at 32% and our match model at 47%, and blending those with recent form gives 38%. The best price, 2.90 at WilliamHill, is longer than our fair price of 2.62, so there is value in it. The pick lost.
