 by Steve Ashfield in Championship Predictions

Coventry City's promotion push has faltered in the past few weeks. The Sky Blues are seventh in the Championship and are home to 17th-placed Portsmouth on Wednesday evening. Here's my match prediction.

With six games to play, City are one place and a single point behind the final promotion play-off position. That could grow to four if both Middlesbrough and Bristol City were to win on Tuesday evening.

If results went their way though, a win over Portsmouth could take them back into the top six. City have lost their last couple of league games but they were against the top two teams in the Championship. Home form had produced four successive league wins before being beaten by Burnley.

Portsmouth made a slow start to life back in the Championship. The newly-promoted club were in the bottom three but have fought their wahy up to 17th. However, Pompey are still only four points above the relegation zone.

Just two away league games have been won this season and 14 lost. Each of their last three away matches in the Championship have ended in defeat and ten of the last 11. That's compared with four wins out of five at home.

We tip Coventry City to get a vital home victory.

Our Coventry City vs Portsmouth Prediction

Coventry City have had a tough fixture list in recent weeks. They have lost to the top two teams in the table but will find this home game against Portsmouth a tad easier. Their home league form has been good and it takes a title chasing team to beat them.

Portsmouth won the reverse fixture 4-1 but their form away from Fratton Park is hugely disappointing. Just three points have come from their last 11 away league fixtures, all from a win at Oxford. Our Coventry City v Portsmouth prediction is Coventry City to win.
