Competition: Championship
Market: Coventry City win
Odds: 19/20 @ 1xBet
With local bragging rights up for grabs on Saturday lunchtime, Championship leaders Coventry will host local rivals West Brom.
Starting with the hosts, heading into November’s international break with what could prove to be a crucial 1-0 victory away at Stoke, Coventry have embarked on a record-breaking start to proceedings. With the mood in Frank Lampard’s camp at a red-hot high, the Sky Blues are riding a sensational wave of momentum. Marking their return from November’s international break this weekend holding a commanding five-point buffer at the top of the Championship standings, the former Everton boss has seen his high-flying squad gain a string of plaudits from across the country. Getting November underway with a thumping 3-1 win at home against Sheffield United, Coventry have won eight of their last nine Championship appearances – a purple patch that stems all the way back to a 0-0 stalemate against Leicester on September 20th. In fact, Lampard’s leaders have registered 34 points from their first 15 Championship showdowns and they will be confident of making another title statement here.
As for the visitors, while West Brom might have entered November’s fortnight interval with a much-welcomed 2-1 win at home against Oxford, the Baggies have endured a worrying Championship rut this season. Marking their return on Saturday lunchtime scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the table, Ryan Mason’s inconsistent squad will be bracing themselves for another stern examination here. Getting November underway with a 1-0 loss at the hands of Charlton, the former Tottenham coach has seen his side win just one of their previous five Championship appearances. Pencilled in as a real underdog contender when they travel across the Midlands this weekend, West Brom have gained an unwanted reputation for their glaring issues away from the Hawthorns. Including a woeful 3-0 drumming against Millwall on October 4th, Mason’s men have lost all of their previous four consecutive Championship matchups on the road by an aggregate score of 7-1.
