Our prediction for this Championship match:
Coventry City will look to recover from the EFL Cup loss to Tottenham when they face Swansea City in the Championship round 6. The Sky Blues are eager to put an end to their three-game winless run in the league and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the South Wales outfit. Important midfielder Ellis Simms returns to the starting XI after he was rested in the midweek clash, while all Joel Latibeaudiere, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, Borges Rodrigues, and Ben Sheaf remain in the treatment room.
Swansea City, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Norwich City, but given their poor away record, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. Barring any fresh injury worries, Swansea boss Luke Williams is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Canaries at the weekend.
Highlighted Team (Coventry):
Nicknamed the Sky Blues, Coventry City are an English football club that compete in the League One. Coventry City, who were founded on August 13, 1883 as Singers FC, wear sky blue kit when playing on home soil, whilst their away colour is white.
Aston Villa and Leicester City are considered the club’s main rivals, but they have rivalry with fellow West Midlands clubs Wallsall and Burton Albion as well. Coventry City have yet to win the Premier League trophy, but they did well to go all the way in the FA Cup in the 1986/1987 season, with the team beat Charlton Athletic in the two-legged final. They share stadium with Birmingham City, with both clubs playing their home games at St. Andrew’s Stadium.
Built in December, 1906, St. Andrew’s Stadium can hold up to 29,409 spectators. Dion Dublin is one of the most famous Coventry City players, with the legendary centre-forward scoring 61 goals in 145 appearances for the club in the league.
