Coventry City vs Hull City Prediction: Sky Blues are expected to put up a strong performance and potentially emerge as the victors

On the upcoming Saturday of March 11th, the CBS Arena will play host to an EFL Championship match between Coventry City and Hull City. It is noteworthy that Coventry City has been defeated in their last three home games against Hull City, during which they failed to score a single goal.

Coventry City’s Form

Coventry City extended their streak of victories by claiming a decisive win against Huddersfield in their previous fixture. Viktor Gyokeres emerged as the standout performer of the match, having scored two goals in each half to secure victory for his team.

Notably, they have emerged victorious in 14 out of their 35 games so far, with nine of those triumphs being secured on their home turf.

Having accumulated 52 points from 35 games, Coventry City currently occupies the eighth position in the standings, trailing the promotion playoff spots by a mere three points. It is plausible that they may soon ascend to the top six with a positive turn of events.

Viktor Gyokeres presently leads the ranks as Coventry City's top scorer, having netted 17 goals thus far. Gustavo Hamer and Jamie Allen hold the second and third positions, having scored six goals each.

Coventry’s possible lineup

Wilson; McNally, McFadzean, Doyle; Dabo, Eccles, Hamer, Wilson-Esbrand; Howley; Goykeres, Godden.

Hull City’s Form

In the meantime, it is worth noting that Hull's poor away performance continued as they suffered their fourth consecutive defeat against Bristol. In their recent away fixtures, they have been unsuccessful in scoring goals in three out of their last four games.

Hull currently occupies the 14th position in the league standings with a total of 45 points from 35 games played thus far. Of the 14 victories they have secured, only five have been attained in away matches.

Oscar Estupinan leads the team in terms of goals scored with a total of 12, followed by Ozan Tufan and Jacob Greaves who have scored four goals each, securing the second and third positions on the team's scoring chart, respectively.

Hull City’s possible lineup

Darlow; Coyle, Jones, McLoughlin, Elder; Simons; Longman, Docherty, Tufan, Slater, Tetteh. 

Coventry vs Hull expert tips

While Coventry's past record against Hull may not be favorable, their current form suggests they are well-prepared for the upcoming fixture. Despite the psychological advantage that Hull may hold, the Sky Blues are expected to put up a strong performance and potentially emerge as the victors, securing all three points. Given that both teams have previously scored more than 2.5 goals in their past face-offs, it is reasonable to anticipate that this match will witness a similar outcome, with a high likelihood of more than 2.5 goals being scored.
