Fourth-placed Leicester take on sixth-placed Coventry City at the King Power Stadium on Saturday for matchday six of the Championship. The Foxes and the Sky Blues are separated by just a single point in the early stages of the 2025-26 campaign. Let’s get into the match prediction!
After being relegated from the Premier League last season, Leicester fans will be expecting their team to compete for automatic promotion back to the top flight. It’s been an encouraging start for the Foxes who have racked up three wins, one draw and one defeat in their four league fixtures so far.
Following elimination from the League Cup in the first round, Leicester responded with two consecutive wins. Last weekend saw them come from behind to draw 2-2 away from home with Oxford despite being reduced to 10 men after just 24 minutes.
Coventry got off to a barnstorming start to the season, taking seven points from the first nine available which included scoring 12 goals in the space of two games.
However, after being knocked out of the League Cup in the second round, Coventry would then draw their next two league fixtures. Most recently, they salvaged a point with a goal deep into stoppage time, drawing 1-1 at home with Norwich. That result keeps them unbeaten in the Championship with two wins and three draws.
