The English Championship season is proving to be quite entertaining, but some teams still have matches to play. This weekend, Coventry City vs Huddersfield Town will play on Matchday 5 of the English Football League.
Coventry is not performing well at the moment, and the team has gone five games without a win. However, the series of bad results is not putting it in relegation positions. On the other hand, Huddersfield is struggling directly in the red zone, and in order to get out of it, the team needs to get the three points.

Coventry City Preview
Coventry City remains in the second half of the standings after nine wins, 8 draws and 10 defeats in 27 games played so far. They have a total of 35 points, and while that is enough to avoid fighting in the relegation places, it is not enough to compete for the title.
The team arrives to this match after having suffered two defeats in a row, losing to Burnley by 1-0 and to Norwich by 2-4. Coventry’s situation is starting to get complicated as it has a total of five games without a win in the Championship.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Ben Wilson; Fankaty Dabo, Michael Rose, Callum Doyle; Brooke Norton-Cuffy, Ben Sheaf, Gustavo Hamer, Jamie Allen, Jake Bidwell; Kasey Palmer, Viktor Gyokeres.
Huddersfield Town Preview
On the other hand, Huddersfield Town does not have a negative streak like Coventry. Indeed, it has attained at least two wins in the last five matches it has played. Still, the team’s present is not promising as it is in the 22nd place in the standings, fighting in the relegation zone.
Huddersfield is the team with the second-highest number of defeats, with a record of 7 wins, 5 draws, and 14 losses in 26 games played. The team arrives to this game after a 1-1 draw against Hull City. Before that game, it had lost 1-2 to Luton, so it has not won in its last two games played.
Probable lineup (3-4-2-1): Nicholas Bilokapic; Tom Lees, Michal Helik, Matthew Pearson; Matthew Lowton, Jonathan Hogg, Scott High, Josh Ruffels; Jack Rudoni, Duane Holmes; Jordan Rhodes.
JefeBet Prediction
Huddersfield Town has all to lose in this Coventry City vs Huddersfield Town clash. It is the worst visiting team of the campaign, and it has only two wins in 12 games played in this capacity. Despite the fact that in four previous Championship matches played between the two Huddersfield has the only win (they drew the other three), it is clear, by the current state of both teams, that the match looks winnable for Coventry.
Prediction: Coventry City win by a score of 1-0.
