#3 Cardiff City
Cardiff were always candidates for relegation, so the fact that they're included on this list will probably surprise no one. They did very well in the Championship to have finished in second place with a staggering 90 points, but a failure to add any real strength to their side in the summer has cost them dearly.
To make matters worse, their recent record signing Emiliano Sala has been reported missing after the plane that was taking him from Nantes to Cardiff was believed to have crashed. It's a tragic incident that transcends whatever issues the club faces in football, but Cardiff's morale will be at an all-time low right now.
The Bluebirds sit in 18th place with just 19 points. They've been treated as relegation fodder from the get-go, and judging by the way they've been consistently dismantled by other clubs in the division, there seems to be only one end result for the Welsh club.
