Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet

Looking to extend their advantage at the top of the Championship table, a high-flying Coventry will travel to the Racecourse Ground when they meet Wrexham on Friday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Wrexham might have made their iconic Championship debut this season, the Red Dragons have struggled to find any kind of fluidity. Although Phil Parkinson’s men might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign pencilled in as a genuine play-off contender, the former Bolton boss reportedly has some mounting pressure on his shoulders at the Racecourse Ground. Suffering an infamous EFL Cup exit at home against bitter local rivals and League One outfit Cardiff earlier in the week, Wrexham have the feel of a squad desperately searching for a much-welcomed boost here. However, marking their return from October’s international break with a 1-0 loss away at Stoke, Friday’s hosts have now recorded just a sole win from any of their previous seven appearances across all competitions. Failing to register consecutive Championship wins since getting the new campaign underway, it should also be highlighted that Parkinson’s men have recorded just a sole second-tier clean sheet since the end of August.

As for the visitors, although Coventry might have suffered play-off heartbreak last season, Frank Lampard’s camp haven’t shown any signs of a hangover. Flying out of the traps and opening Friday’s trip to Wales holding a three-point buffer at the top of the Championship standings, the Sky Blues have embarked on a public fairytale. Last seen putting in another thumping performance as they secured a 3-1 victory at home against Watford, the former Everton boss has seen his high-flying squad win all of their previous six consecutive outings by an aggregate score of 19-2. Heading into October’s fortnight interval with a 5-0 romp away at Sheffield Wednesday, Coventry have unsurprisingly gained a reputation for their clinical performances in the final third. In fact, recording a staggering 34 Championship goals in their 12 appearances, Lampard’s side have also bagged 14 more goals than any other club in the division. Likewise, the promotion contenders have also won their last three straight matchups outside of the Midlands by an aggregate score of 11-1.
