Cardiff City return to Championship action at Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday hoping to claim a first away win since early April.

The Bluebirds are back in the relegation places after their revival under interim boss Omer Riza was halted by back-to-back defeats prior to the international break.

With pressure on once more, this weekend would be the ideal time for Cardiff to improve their underwhelming away record.

Just three of the 15 points Cardiff have banked in 2024-25 have come away from home.

They are one of only six clubs in the three English Football League (EFL) divisions who are yet to win on the road in the league this season, with only Oxford United and Plymouth Argyle (two each) claiming fewer away points than the Welsh side.

Cardiff are without a victory in seven league games on their travels this season, but the winless run stands at nine including the tail end of last season.

The last time Cardiff waited this long for an away success at the start of a campaign was in 2019-20, when they triumphed at the 10th time of asking at Nottingham Forest in late November.

Despite the slow start outside Wales, they finished that season in the Championship play-offs.

Sheffield Wednesday will look to make it successive home wins on Saturday having overcome Norwich City in their last game at Hillsborough, though they had gone three matches without winning on their own patch before that.
