Coventry City Preview – Will the Sky Blues build on Blades win?
Coventry City went into last weekend’s crunch match with Sheffield United having lost two and drawn one of the previous three. Their form was hampering their play-off ambitions, but the Sky Blues bounced back with a massive three points on Saturday.
Sheffield United are one of the form teams in the Championship, but Coventry made light work of the Blades. A Callum O’Hare brace and efforts from Viktor Gyokeres and Matt Godden helped the Sky Blues to a superb 4-1 home win over Paul Heckingbottom’s men.
Coventry have given themselves a play-off lifeline, and City will be desperate to follow up last weekend’s win with another three points on home turf this Wednesday. The bookies are offering 4/7 for a home victory.
Hull City Preview – Can the Tigers upset the play-off chasers?
Hull City may be in 20th place, but last season’s EFL League One winners are a big 13 points clear of 22nd. They still have a little bit of work to do in their quest for Championship survival, but Shota Arveladze’s men should be just fine.
Hull have struggled for wins of late, picking up just one victory from their past nine league games. Under their new boss, the Tigers have secured two Championship wins in ten. However, they are unbeaten away from home in four (one win, three draws).

Coventry City vs Hull City Betting Advice
Coventry left the MKM Stadium with maximum points when the teams went head-to-head in the reverse fixture back in October. Matt Godden’s early goal proved to be enough for a 1-0 Sky Blues victory.
The previous meetings between the duo came in the 2011-12 Championship campaign. Both clubs won the away fixture that season.
