Coventry City is set to play on Saturday as they aim to improve from a slow start to their Championship season. The team has struggled to perform after finishing in fifth and ninth place in the past two years. With just five points in their first seven matches and a total of six goals scored and 11 conceded, the team faced back-to-back defeats recently. However, they bounced back with a 3-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers on Tuesday, showing a renewed sense of confidence. Now, Coventry City will look to secure another win before the international break and work their way up the league standings.
Coventry City Predicted Lineup
Wilson; Van Ewijk, Thomas, Kitching, Bidwell; Sheaf, Eccles; Mason-Clark, Rudoni, Wright; Thomas-Asante
Sheffield Wednesday form
Their supporters will hope that they keep their upward trend of late following a slow opening to the season, with some hints of progress of late. Sheffield Wednesday had the toughest possible start to the season under new manager Danny Rohl, suffering five straight defeats and picking up only one point between August and September. However, they fought back well to win 3-2 against West Bromwich Albion and drew 0-0 against Bristol City. Hopefully, the team will carry this momentum into the next game to get another win before the break.
Sheffield Wednesday Predicted Starting Lineup
Beadle; Ihiekwe, Bernard, Famewo; Valery, Charles, Bannan, Johnson; Windass, Ugbo, Musaba
Coventry City vs Sheffield Wednesday Expert Tips
Sheffield Wednesday have shown some mettle coming back from a bad streak with two good results in the last week. The team should therefore be good enough to give their opponents a run for their money on Saturday. Coventry may draw inspiration from the dominant performance they just had and keep winning under Mark Robins. Their young, talented team should win again this weekend.
