Cardiff City secured a valuable clean sheet in a 0-0 draw away to Blackburn Rovers in the EFL Championship on Saturday, 10 October 2026. The point moves the Bluebirds to 21st in the table with seven points from their opening eight matches.

Erol Bulut's side had to be defensively resolute, facing a Blackburn team that enjoyed 65% of possession. Cardiff's goalkeeper was credited with a 69% save percentage on the day, helping to preserve the shutout. The team's average expected goals conceded this season stands at 1.36.

This result provides a platform after a recent run of form that reads WLDLL, with just one win in the last five outings. The last victory was a 3-1 home win against Charlton Athletic on 19 September, where Jack Moylan scored twice. Moylan is the club's top scorer this season with three goals.

The current standings show the team remains in a tight battle near the bottom of the Championship.
