Sunderland vs Coventry Prediction & Betting Tips | 09/11/2024 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this Championship match:

Sunderland

Sunderland

Coventry

Coventry

Following back-to-back draws with Queens Park Rangers and Preston, Sunderland will look to start a new winning run when they take on Coventry City on Saturday afternoon. The Black Cats have been impressive at the back of late, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive clean sheet and they should continue relying on their rock-solid defence in upcoming fixtures. Both Patrick Roberts and Romaine Mundle are in line for recalls after the duo came off the bench in the midweek draw, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.

The Sky Blues, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to Derby County. As Sunderland are determined to get back on course and retain top position in the standings, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. The likes of Simms, Wilson, Borges Rodrigues, Bidwell, and Allen are out of contention with injuries for the away team.

Highlighted Team (Sunderland):

Sunderland

Sunderland are a professional football club that have been playing their home games at the Stadium of Light since 1997. The capacity of the stadium is 49,000, but before expansion the original ground capacity was 42,000. Red and White shirts are Sunderland’s trademark and the club’s fiercest rivals are Newcastle United. The two local rivals have been contesting in the Tyne-Wear derby since 1898 and there have always been fireworks in what is one of the greatest derbies in English football. Sunderland were on the verge of dropping to the Championship in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign, but experienced tactician Sam Allardyce eventually helped the team avoid relegation.

The Black Cats have won six First Division trophies (now the Premier League), with the team lifting two FA Cup titles. Sunderland won their first FA Cup trophy in 1937, with the team beating Preston North End 3-1 in the title game. The club was founded in 1879 as Sunderland and District Teachers A.F.C.
