Cardiff Team News
Cardiff played very severely last season. He finished 21st in the Championship, narrowly avoiding relegation. In the same year, Portsmouth knocked him out of the EFL Cup at the earliest stage. Now they are hoping for better results in both competitions, and the first round of the cup is in their hands.
Cardiff players showed they can play more efficient football in the first match against Leeds United this season. This team could have taken all three points because they had a 2:0 advantage at halftime. However, Leeds football players managed to equalize by the end of the match.
In the preparatory period, Cardiff played without goals against Wycombe 0:0 and lost against Porto 4:0. Braga beat them 1:0, and they drew 1:1 against Cambridge. The Championship has just begun, but teams like Colchester should be fine for Cardiff.

Colchester Team News
Colchester United comes to this match from the Second League. They had similar problems in their division to Cardiff. Last season they finished in 20th place, barely getting out of the danger zone. Now they care about showing their teeth against a better team.
During July, Colchester played four friendly matches. In the first, they defeated Maldon & Tiptree 4:0. Two defeats followed, which ended with a score of 1:1: against Stevenage and Peterborough. They got one win against Leyton Orient.
It is not clear how good Colchester’s form is, but we can expect a solid performance from them on Wednesday

Cardiff vs Colchester Prediction
Cardiff started this season with a good performance, and a draw against favored Leeds gave them enough confidence to start the EFL Cup with a bang. They are a better team than Colchester and will play very attacking. Colchester will look for their chances on the counter-attack but it can be dangerous. We expect to see more than two goals in this match.
