Our prediction for this Championship match:
Coventry City will look to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to WBA when they take on Luton Town in the Championship round 31. The Sky Blues suffered three defeats in the last four league fixtures, but they are surely capable of matching the Hatters in front of home fans. Mark Robins can’t count on the likes of Fabio Tavares, Callum OHare, Kyle McFadzean, and Tyler Walker for Saturday’s encounter.
Luton, on the other hand, are eyeing their fourth consecutive league triumph. Rob Edwards’ troops are eager to cement their spot in top six, but beating Coventry on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Speaking of the away side, all Alfie Doughty, Pelly Mpanzu, and Jordan Clark return to the starting line-up after the trio was rested in the FA Cup loss to Grimsby Town.
Highlighted Player (Simon Moore):

Simon Moore is an English goalkeeper who plays for Sheffield United in the Championship. Moore began his career at Brading Town and, after playing 49 games in the league for the club, he moved to Farnborough in 2008. However, due to the lack of first-team football, Simon Moore left the club at the end of the season, with the 191-cm-tall shoot-stopper signing a contract with Brentford.
The English goalkeeper, who was born in Sandown on May 19, 1990, made his debut for the Bees in May, 2010 against Hartlepool United, coming as a substitute for first-choice goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny. After ending his loan spell with Basingstoke Town in January 2011, he moved to Cardiff City and it has to be noted that he made 17 appearances for the Welsh outfit.
In the summer of 2016 he signed a deal with Sheffield United for a fee of around £500,000 and he did remarkably well to keep 17 clean sheets in the 2016/2017 League One campaign. The Blades finished the season in top position in the standings and, no doubt, Simon Moore’s brilliant saves helped the club secure promotion to the English second tier.
Highlighted Team (Luton ):
