Bitesize Prediction: Huddersfield vs Coventry – 4/3/23

Competition: Championship

Market: Coventry void

Rating: 7/10 @

Hoping to catch up in the play-off race this weekend, Coventry travel to struggling Huddersfield on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Huddersfield might have secured a well-deserved 2-1 win over Birmingham on February 18, Neil Warnock's new side came down to earth last weekend. Having a nightmare last weekend as they were hit by a 4-0 battery at the hands of Burnley, the former Cardiff boss knows he has an almighty fight on his hands in 2023. Still sitting Four points from a Championship safety and named as one of the main relegation picks this year, the Yorkshire-based side have won just one win in their 10 previous meetings against second-tier opponents . With that run dating back to December 29, the Warnock side have also earned a reputation for their blatant struggles at the back. Including a 3-0 battery against Stoke last month, it's worth noting that Huddersfield have recorded just one league clean sheet since the end of October.

When it comes to visitors, while Coventry might have been disappointed after settling for a 0-0 stalemate at Preston earlier in the week, the Blues have impressed many again throughout the Championship this season. Although Mark Robins' side are facing rather public issues behind the scenes, they are enjoying a five-game unbeaten streak. Desperate to catch up in the play-off race on their trip to Yorkshire this weekend, Coventry continued to shine with their defensive steel. Including an eye-catching 1-0 win over top six contenders Millwall last month, Saturday's guests have sent just one strike in their last four Championship appearances. Likewise, with just one loss to their name since Jan. 21, Robins' side will sense an opportunity here. It should also be noted that when the two teams last met in January, Coventry took a deserved 2-0 win at home.

Bet: Coventry draw Huddersfield 7/10 for Saturday's league game@
