Correct outcome prediction: Coventry City to Win
Coventry City are clear favourites for this clash and we predict the Sky Blues to progress through to the fifth round of the FA Cup. Mark Robins' Coventry side have clicked together in recent months and are reaping the rewards of a huge summer transfer window which saw Coventry lose Viktor Gyokeres and Gustavo Hamer. Coventry have lost just one of their previous fourteen matches, two wins in that run came against Sheffield Wednesday.
Both teams to score prediction: Yes
Coventry has failed to keep a clean sheet in all of their previous five matches while Sheffield Wednesday have failed to score in two of their previous five matches, scoring a total of nine times in those five matches. Coventry have also scored in all of their previous thirteen matches.
Correct score prediction: 2-1 to Coventry City
For our final prediction, we are predicting a repeat of the previous match with Coventry earning a 2-1 victory. Sheffield Wednesday, for the most part, looks a more organised side under Danny Rohl and they are harder to break down since his appointment. Coventry will win this match and will dominate proceedings but the scoreline will not be a big one in Coventry's favour.
