Our prediction for this Championship match:

Coventry

Coventry

Blackburn Rovers

Blackburn Rovers

Coventry Building Society Arena will be the centre of attention when Coventry City and Blackburn Rovers square off against each other in the Championship round 8. The Sky Blues are eager to put an end to their five-game winless run in all competitions and we are positive that they will leave their hearts on the field. Jack Rudoni is a major doubt after limping off with injury in a 3-0 loss to Leeds United, while experienced midfielder Joe Allen remains in the recovery room. Meanwhile, the Seasiders aim to build on a 2-0 win over Queens Park Rangers.

Blackburn Rovers are eyeing their fourth consecutive clean sheet in the Championship. As the visitors are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence in Tuesday’s clash, we are unlikely to see goals galore at Coventry Building Society Arena. Taking everything into account, there is a big value in betting on under 2.5 goals. Owen Beck will serve the second of his three-game ban, while all Scott Wharton, Callum Brittain, Zak Gilsenan, and Harry Leonard continue to miss out with injuries for the away team.

Highlighted Team (Coventry):

Coventry

Nicknamed the Sky Blues, Coventry City are an English football club that compete in the League One. Coventry City, who were founded on August 13, 1883 as Singers FC, wear sky blue kit when playing on home soil, whilst their away colour is white.

Aston Villa and Leicester City are considered the club’s main rivals, but they have rivalry with fellow West Midlands clubs Wallsall and Burton Albion as well. Coventry City have yet to win the Premier League trophy, but they did well to go all the way in the FA Cup in the 1986/1987 season, with the team beat Charlton Athletic in the two-legged final. They share stadium with Birmingham City, with both clubs playing their home games at St. Andrew’s Stadium.

Built in December, 1906, St. Andrew’s Stadium can hold up to 29,409 spectators. Dion Dublin is one of the most famous Coventry City players, with the legendary centre-forward scoring 61 goals in 145 appearances for the club in the league.
