Coventry City will hope to improve their results as they face a travel-weary Millwall unit in the Championship matchday 28 fixture on Tuesday. This match in Coventry between the first-placed Sky Blues and the fourth-placed Lions comes with our prediction of less than 2.5 goals.
Coventry’s 55 points from 27 matches (W16, D7, L4) see them start this round with a six-point lead over Middlesbrough. Millwall’s 46 points (W13, D7, L7) have them starting just three points outside the top two.
A 2-1 home win over Leicester last weekend was a welcome break for Coventry, as it was their first victory in five competitive matches (D1, L3). That sequence saw them exit the FA Cup and also lose a bit of momentum in the league.
Their home form is still top drawer, as the Sky Blues have nine wins from their last ten Championship matches at this venue, with a defeat against Ipswich the lone exception.
Millwall won 2-0 away at Watford last weekend to make it three wins out of the last four league games. The Lions lost 4-0 in the reverse fixture in October, but any hopes of revenge need to wait.
Millwall won only two of their last eight away matches (D3, L3) and have struggled on the road recently, which questions their chances here.

Our Coventry City vs Millwall Prediction
Coventry’s invincibility has faded a bit of late, with their results tapering off since December. They have won only three of their last ten competitive matches, losing four and drawing three. The hosts are still in control of the Championship lead, while Millwall’s recent surge has seen them stay in touch with second-placed Middlesbrough. The visitors still have a lot to improve on the road and even failed to score in two of their last three trips.
This match could be a tight one on goals, and our Coventry City vs Millwall prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
