Prediction: Fulham 2-1 Cardiff
Fulham showed no hangover whatsoever from failing to secure a top-two place on Sunday, scoring two excellent goals and completely controlling the game after taking the lead shortly after the interval.
The fact they did so without the league's number one marksman in Mitrovic is testament to the strong work Parker has done to keep confidence high in west London.
Fulham are unbeaten in their last eight matches now, while only champions Leeds United boast a stronger home record in the Championship in 2019/20.
Per the BBC, no team has ever turned around a two-goal first-leg deficit to win a Championship play-off semi-final tie, and that is unlikely to change here.
