Prediction: 2-1
Cardiff
High-flying Coventry City will be aiming to extend their winning run to five games in all competitions when they take on Cardiff City on Monday afternoon. The Sky Blues have been scoring goals for fun of late and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Ellis Simms, who has found his goal-scoring touch. Both Tatsuhiro Sakamoto and Jamie Allen are out of contention with injuries.
The Bluebirds, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Swansea City and Sunderland and given Coventry City’s splendid form in the English second tier, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty. Both Jak Alnwick and Mark McGuinness are sidelined with injuries, while Kion Etete is a major doubt.
