Cardiff City prepare to entertain Watford at Ninian Park on Wednesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bluebirds are clearly on top, having won 13 and lost only 5 of the 22 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ninian Park was just last season, in September 2007, with Watford inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Bluebirds in a Championship match.
