Coventry City vs Burnley Prediction: Coventry to improve on their home form

Coventry is set to host Burnley on Saturday at Ricoh Arena. This will be their first meeting since 2012. Both teams will try their best to win the game. 

Coventry registered their first home win of the season by defeating Middlesbrough (1-0) in the last game. Their defense was top-notch as they didn't give many opportunities to their visitors to score.

Earlier they lost their first home game against Preston by (0-1). In their two home games, they scored 1 goal against their visitors and conceded 1 in return.

At away, the situation is even worse as they didn’t win (D4 L3) a single game yet. With 7 points in 9 games, Coventry is sitting at the bottom of the table. They have netted 8 goals so far this season and conceded 13 in return.

Viktor Gyokeres is the team’s top scorer with 3 goals followed by Matt Godden (3) and Kyle McFadzean (1) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions.  

Wilson; Panzo, McFadzean, Doyle; Dabo, Palmer, Allen, Sheaf, Bidwell; Godden, Gyokeres

At away, their performance also seems decent (D3 W2 L1) as they managed to win twice out of six league games. With 19 points in 12 games, Burnley is sitting in 5th position. They have netted 19 goals so far this season and conceded 12 in return.

Jay Rodriguez is the team’s top scorer with 5 goals followed by Josh Brownhill (4) and Nathan Tella (4) respectively 2nd and 3rd positions. 

Muric; Roberts, Harwood-Bellis, Beyer, Vitinho; Cullen, Cork; Tella, Brownhill, Benson; Rodriguez.

Coventry are improving with each passing day. Lack of concentration for Burley is the cause of concern.After analyzing all the facts, we favour Coventry to win and improve their home record or the game to end in a draw. In this game, we are anticipating less than 2.5 goals as historically both teams have scored 2 goals in a face-off.
