Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry Predictions

Chances in short supply as Owls host Cov

Sheffield Wednesday’s home game with Coventry at Hillsborough on Saturday is unlikely to produce many goals. There have been under 2.5 goals in Coventry’s last three Championship games and fewer than three goals in seven of their last nine.

Sheffield Wednesday are two places above Coventry in the table, with just one point separating the sides. The hosts have won 12, drawn 9 and lost 11 of their 32 games this season, while the visitors are tenth with 12 wins, eight draws and 12 losses.

Sheffield Wednesday’s recent form has been inconclusive, with two wins, two draws and two defeats in their last six games. However, they are unbeaten in eight of their last nine home matches. In contrast, Coventry have been winners in five of their last six Championship games.

A second-half goal was enough for Sheffield Wednesday to beat Swansea in their last Championship game on Wednesday, and they have now had under 2.5 goals in three of their last four games. Priced at 7/4 to win the game, Wednesday have scored 71% of their goals this season after the break, while Swansea had chances but didn’t make the most of them.

There have been under 2.5 goals in three of Sheffield Wednesday’s last four games in the Championship and Coventry’s last three league games. Seven of Coventry’s last nine have produced fewer than three goals.

Coventry have scored in 12 of their last 15 league games, so the hosts may not get it all their own way. It could be hard to separate these two sides, with the 1-1 draw looking a decent correct-score bet.
