A top-of-the-table clash is lined up in the Championship this Saturday when Stoke City plays host to Coventry City. Four points stand between the two sides, with Coventry leading Stoke second with 27 points. Let’s have a look at the match prediction here.
Stoke took full advantage of Middlesbrough’s slump in recent weeks to rise to second. The Potters are coming from a 3-0 win at Oxford United.
That was their third straight win and the eighth of the season. Stoke will hope to take this momentum into the weekend match, eyeing a fifth home win in the league.
Coventry are the best-performing away team so far in the Championship and have won two of the last three meetings with Stoke City. They do have a good run to carry into this game as well.
Their last away match ended in defeat, though, as they fell to newly promoted Wrexham. That was their first loss of the season, and the Sky Blues recovered with a 3-1 win at home against Sheffield United.
That lifted the visitors to 31 points, and they will also be looking to be the first to hit 10 wins. Frank Lampard’s men haven't just been winning matches; they are also the lead scorers in the season.
In their 14 league outings, Coventry scored an average of 2.8 goals.
