On the back of the best week that Coventry City has had in some time, there is another big game to contend with.
Sheffield United also had a good week; their fans will have especially enjoyed the idea of relegating their biggest rivals, and they did so in a match that went BTTS-Yes, allowing Wednesday the first goal that they had managed to score in weeks. The ill discipline of Kalvin Phillips didn’t help them, but in truth, their foot had already come off the pedal by the time Phillips was sent off.
Coventry continue to average over 2 xG per match this season, and whilst this drops to 1.86 when playing away from home, Coventry also concede more chances and more goals away from home, which helps our angle.
Indeed, until a 2-0 win at West Brom at the weekend, Coventry had seen BTTS-Yes come in in six away matches in a row, so it has been a profitable angle in Coventry away games of late. Coventry have also scored in 13 of their last 14 away games as well.
United have seen BTTS-Yes land in six consecutive matches as well. They create over 2 xG per match at home as well, and they have scored in 10 in a row, scoring three or more in seven of those 10.
