Betting on Coventry
After a rather negative streak of 9 games without a win, they already registered two consecutive victories. One of those wins was against Millwall by a score of 1-0 playing at home, with a rather lively second half, where they scored and then suffered a bit because the Lions took possession.
The second victory came after a consistent performance against Rotherham by a score of 2-0. Jamie Allen scored at the start of the second half and then again they struggled a bit, but in the 92nd minute they scored their second, sealing the match.
Possible Lineup (3-2-4-1): Ben Wilson; Luke McNally, Kyle McFadzean, Callum Doyle; Gustavo Hamer, Josh Eccles; Brooke Norton-Cuffy, Jamie Allen, Kasey Palmer, Jake Bidwell; Viktor Gyokeres.
Betting on Sunderland
The visiting team has improved a lot and now registers 5 games without defeats. This positive streak positions them sixth in the standings, but they still can’t feel at ease because there is a huge pack of teams behind them, so relaxing is not an option.
They beat QPR 0-3 and then, in a match that looked easy to some extent, they drew 1-1 against Bristol City. The lack of intensity was noticeable in the second half, when the visitors went all out and equalized in the 93rd minute.
At the moment they are sixth in the standings, because they have a better goal difference, but Millwall and Blackburn are close behind. To make matters worse, one loss would imply falling from the playoffs positions, so the importance of this match becomes much stronger.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Anthony Patterson; Trai Hume, Daniel Ballard, Danny Batth, Aijbola-Joshua Aese; Daniel Neil, Eduard Michut; Patrick Robert, Amad Diallo, Jack Clarke; Joe Gelhardt.
JefeBet Prediction
As we have mentioned before, this will be an even match. Both teams come into this game with good streaks and with a boost of confidence. Curiously, Sunderland has a good advantage since they are good visitors. They have won 7 out of 16 games played, but on this occasion we think they will split points and draw in an entertaining game, which Coventry will make exciting in the second half.
Prediction: Coventry 1-1 Sunderland.
