Birmingham City vs Coventry City: Top Free Betting Tips

Birmingham City will take on the challenge of Coventry City at St. Andrew's Stadium in the Championship tie on Saturday, September 17. Both sides have been plagued with injuries but it is the Blues who have fared better in recent outings. 

Birmingham City vs Coventry City to Win

Coventry gave a good account of themselves in their last game against Luton Town, earning a 2-2 draw. Their plaudits will be put to test against Birmingham City, who have won their last two fixtures. The Blues' feats are more impressive given the fact that these results were attained on the road. At home, they will be more comfortable and should claim the three points on offer.

Over 2.5 Goals

Four of Coventry’s last five outings have seen three or more goals. We expect this trend to continue against Birmingham City, who have shown a tendency for the same in tight matches. Both sides have conceded more goals than their opponents and this will make for an interesting encounter.

Both Teams to Score: Yes

Out of the two, neither side has shown an ability to keep a clean sheet. Both sides have a negative goals balance in their last five outings. Birmingham will like their rivals' average of conceding over two goals per game. However, they will be ill-advised to take their foot off the gas as their own defence has a habit of allowing their rivals a chance in the game. 

Birmingham City vs Coventry City: Team News and Match Preview

Birmingham City

The hosts for this encounter will be in high spirits after registering successive wins in the Championship. Struggling Preston North End ended their dismal losing streak and they impressed further with a 2-3 win over West Brom. It has allowed them to put daylight between themselves and the relegation slots, a distance they would like to further increase.

Coventry City

Postponements and injuries have meant that Coventry has only played a handful of matches with the best possible mindset. It has affected their performances and the results have followed suit. They are winless in the current campaign, only having two draws to show for their efforts. Despite this, the attacking department has continued to deliver with just two shutouts, but more is required to get them away from the foot of the points table.
