Coventry vs Millwall Prediction and Betting Tips 20 January 2026

Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Leicester, Coventry City aim to cement top position in the Championship standings. Given Millwall's offensive struggles on the road, we predict a 1-0 home win. The Sky Blues average 2.25 points per game at home, winning 75% of matches and conceding just 0.75 goals per game. Haji Wright is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring the winner against Leicester, while defender Bobby Thomas boosts the back line after serving his suspension. Coventry’s expected goals numbers (home xG 1.79) underline their consistent attacking threat.

The Lions sit fourth and come into this clash after an impressive 2-0 win over Watford, but injuries to Jensen, Luongo, Mazou-Sacko, and Smallbone significantly weaken their midfield depth. The capital club have collected 1.33 PPG away and have kept a respectable 50% clean-sheet rate on the road, though they score just 0.83 goals per away match. Their overall expected goals (1.40) suggests a team that often struggles to convert.

Coventry hold a H2H edge with 10 wins from 20 meetings, and their superior home structure makes them strong favourites. Given their fine home record, we believe that punters worldwide can find value in betting on Home Win, alongside Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 goals as Millwall average only 0.83 away goals.

This Championship match will be played on Tuesday 20 January 2026 at 19:45.
