Blackburn vs Cardiff: match facts, form and head-to-head – 10 October 2026

Blackburn host a struggling Cardiff side in what promises to be a pivotal clash for both clubs. Sitting 15th with eight points from five games – two wins, two draws and three defeats, and a perfectly balanced 10‑10 goal tally – the Rovers will be keen to consolidate their mid‑table safety. Cardiff, languishing in 21st place with just four points from seven stalemates and three losses and a 7‑11 deficit, will be desperate for their first win of the campaign. The two teams have yet to meet this season, so the encounter offers Blackburn a chance to widen the gap on the relegation battle while giving Cardiff a much‑needed opportunity to climb out of the bottom three.
