Coventry vs Cardiff: Top Free Betting Tips

Cardiff and Coventry are two very curious teams and this game promises to be intriguing. Here are our predictions.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

When it comes to goals, these are the two teams in the Championship that have had the fewest overall in the league. Coventry have had an average of 2.2 goals per game and only 8 games with over 2.5 goals in 23 rounds played. Cardiff have also had 8 overs but in 24 games and an average of just 2 goals per game. Judging by the forms of both sides, we expect a difficult and competitive match.

Match Result Prediction: Coventry to Win

Cardiff are the stronger team out of the two on paper but Coventry's form right now has been exceptional. Cardiff have had their issues on the road this season and lost the majority of the matches to date. Coventry had a bad start to the season but right now, there are few teams with their home stats. They are unbeaten in five consecutive home games and even won four of the last five. Four of those five also ended with less than 2.5 goals, so we expect the same here.

Correct Score Prediction: 2:0 to Coventry

We expect Coventry to win without the visitors scoring any goals. Cardiff have had their good or bad moments but right now, Coventry seem like they are an incredible team defensively. They won four of their last five home games and did not concede a single goal in those matches too.

Coventry vs Cardiff: Form, Recent Games, and News

Coventry Preview

Coventry had a very bad start this season and nobody expected much from them as a whole. But their most recent form has been exceptional and the team is even getting close to the playoff zone. One more win may even put them in Top 6 as long as several other contenders fail in their matches. Like most teams, Coventry's goal difference is almost neutral – they have scored 26 goals in 23 games and conceded 25.

Cardiff Preview

Cardiff have a lot more potential than they have been showing this season and it is disappointing. In fact, the team has the current-weakest attack in the entire Championship with 20 goals in 24 games to date. They have not won a game in over five rounds in a row and are getting dangerously close to the relegation zone.
