Sunderland vs Coventry City Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Sunderland are back in the Championship and will be starting off their 2022/23 campaign with a home match against Coventry City. The hosts secured promotion from League One following a win over Wycombe Wanderers in the playoffs and will hope to get going after a shaky preseason. They are coming into this game on the back of just one win in five preseason matches. In their preseason engagements, Sunderland haven’t been the strongest defensively and will hope they can improve on the single clean sheet they managed in five matches. Three times in five matches, they conceded twice and they failed to score in two of the five games. Their head to head run against Coventry isn’t the best either, having failed to win in any of the last four meetings.
Coventry City have two wins in their last three meetings with Sunderland and they’ve had a fine run in preseason, which will give them confidence going into this game. In the Championship last season, they finished 12th in the regular season, and this time round a top six place will be top of their ambitions. Their run towards the end of the season wasn’t the greatest but having managed 64 points in the campaign, they should have what it takes to improve this season. In preseason, they played six matches, and won all. In their last four preseason games, they conceded no goals and in four of the last five, they scored two or more goals. Each of their last three preseason games they played away from home, and should be confident as they head to the Stadium of Light.

Our Sunderland vs Coventry City Prediction
Coventry City are on a good run coming from preseason; they’ve done well both in defence and attack. Here they face a team that has struggled in preseason, with defence their main concern. Sunderland haven’t done well in recent meetings with Country too. A win for the visitors seems more likely here, going by recent form.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
