Ryan Wintle believes Cardiff City could use their momentum as a major advantage going into the South Wales derby as arch-rivals Swansea City continue to endure an alarming slump in form.
The Bluebirds have won only one of their last seven derbies against the Swans, losing five, and desperately want to change that statistic. The Swans have had the Bluebirds' number in recent years, meaning Cardiff fans invariably dread derby day.
But after earning 10 points from their last six games, Cardiff have a bit of a tailwind behind them. They face a crucial relegation six-pointer against Rotherham at the weekend and a good result up in Yorkshire could act as a massive springboard ahead of the derby with Swansea.
