The initial league meeting between these sides produced 10 match corners, with Coventry doing most of the heavy lifting on that occasion. Frank Lampard’s side forced eight corners as they tried to break the deadlock, but Hull remained resilient and managed to come away with a 0-0 draw - being one of only a few sides that has stopped Coventry scoring at home this season.
Coventry are seeing 9.95 match corners per game in the Championship this season, with this average increasing slightly when looking at their away matches (10.15 per game). Their style lends itself to a high match corner count with Coventry not being afraid to get involved in end to end matches, trusting their scoring power to get them over the line.
Hull are seeing 9.35 match corners per game at home in the Championship this season, a slight decrease on the 10.20 match corners per game they’re seeing in the Championship overall. However, they should be motivated to contribute to the corner count given the situation they find themselves in, with their playoff spot still far from secure.
