Coventry City vs Luton Town Prediction: Coventry aiming to get out of relegation zone

Coventry City will welcome Luton Town at Coventry Building Society Arena in Game Week 12 of the English Championship. Coventry aiming to get out of the relegation zone. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Coventry City has not had the best start to the 2024-25 campaign after playing within the Championship during the previous two seasons. The draw has been of slight concern for the fans and more so for the players about the chances of relegation. But in that match last Tuesday, they showed much more when they ensured a draw with QPR. They had lost twice consecutively before that. Kieran Morgan's strike in the second half rescued them from defeat.

Haji Wright netted his fourth of the season to give Coventry a lead going into the last game of this season against QPR, and curiously, he is the only player to have scored more than once in the Championship this season.

Coventry City have won only two games in their initial 11 games this season and are at the bottom, with a difference of two points from Plymouth Argyle and ten from Blackburn Rovers. They have won only two games so far at the CBS Arena. One win was against Blackburn Rovers when Jake Bidwell, Haji Wright, and Brandon Thomas-Asante scored for them.

Luton Town had marked a derby win over Watford last week when they lost at Kenilworth Road on Wednesday. Though Luton had more possession and were more prolific in front of the box, Sunderland were able to end up being favorites because Chris Rigg and Romaine Mundle caught Luton in a spot where they could not capitalize on their efforts.

This was when Elijah Adebayo scored his first Championship goal of the season, and glimpses of his appearance during the 2023-24 season flickered before him when he scored a hat-trick in the Premier League. Luton Town are still at the bottom six of the Championship table, eight points behind Blackburn, with improvements in performances and results post the international break in October.

Luton Town will host Coventry at the CBS Arena this weekend as the two teams seek to put behind a first-ever encounter following their electrifying 2023 Championship playoff final at Wembley Stadium. In that match, Luton missed a decisive spot kick from Fankaty Dabo after which they needed to win it to enter the Premier League for the first time.

After being held at Loftus Road, Coventry will look to take advantage of a relatively good fixture at home on Saturday prior to the matches against Sunderland and Middlesbrough. The Hatters, who were denied by the Black Cats in the previous fixture, can expect at least a draw from their East Midlands clash this weekend.
