Coventry vs Birmingham: Top Free Betting Tips

It's a crucial clash in the Championship as Coventry City host Birmingham City on Saturday, April 29. Heading into the final couple of games, the visitors are fighting for survival in the second tier of English football, while the Sky Blues want to retain their playoff slots and have competition from seven teams.

Match Result Prediction: Coventry to Win

Coventry City are looking to extend their unbeaten run to six games and climb further away from the playoff-chasing pack. The Blues, on the other hand, have nothing to lose with teams below them unable to catch them and a higher midtable position to fight for. just one point above the bottom three. Coventry has the advantage of playing at home and profiting from Birmingham's struggles on the road. The Blues have not won against Convetry on the road since October 2006 and given the Sky Blues' current form, looks unlikely to change this status quo.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Duels between Coventry and Birmingham at Coventry Building Society Arena have been low-scoring affairs of late. That trend looks likely to continue given Conventry's defensive prowess and Birmingham's inability to score regularly. The Sky Blues have only conceded four goals in their last five matches, and Birmingham have scored one goal fewer in this period. Based on this, we are backing an Under 2.5 Goals conclusion to his Round 45 affair.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Coventry

Given Coventry's impressive defensive displays, it is easy to back a clean sheet for them. Couple Birmingham's scoring woes and the likelihood of it happening increases. With 8 goals scored in their last five matches, they should fancy their chances on getting on the scoreboard. The Blues will not make it easy for them as they have only conceded four goals at the same time. It will be a cagey and hard-fought affair, one in which Coventry should triumph with a 1-0 scoreline.

Coventry City Preview

Coventry beat Reading 2-1 in the Championship in their last outing, moving into the playoff positions as a result. Manager Mark Robins knows their next outings are must-win if they have to grasp their chances of making the playoffs. To their fortunes, the Sky Blues will finish the campaign with two consecutive home games and need to make the most of their opportunity. Draws have curtailed them this season and more of the same can prove to be calamitous.

Birmingham City Preview

The Blues will meet Coventry after four of their last five duels. Their current form is nothing to write home about with just one win in their last five outings. However, they will be rest assured that Championship continuity is guaranteed and they cannot fall below their current 17th place standing. The highest mathematical from wins in their final two games can bring them to 13th, overtaking Watford. They have done better away from home recently but scoring goals remains an issue for them.
