Bitesize Prediction: Coventry vs Blackburn – 01/10/24

Competition: Championship

Market: Blackburn double chance

Odds: 4/5 @ Pribet

Looking to extend on their Championship romp in midweek, Blackburn will travel to a struggling Coventry on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, suffering a remarkable EFL Cup collapse on September 18th as they eventually fell to a heartbreak 2-1 loss at home against Premier League outfit Tottenham, Coventry find themselves in the midst of a real struggle. Last seen over the weekend putting in a nightmare performance away at Leeds as they slumped to a 3-0 drumming, the Sky Blues are desperately seeking a crucial boost here. However, heading into September’s international break with a 1-0 loss at home against Norwich, Mark Robins’ men have failed to win any of their previous five matchups across all competitions. Likewise, losing each of their last three matchups by an aggregate score of 7-2, Coventry have also shown some worrying issues on home soil. Last seen in front of their own supporters suffering a 2-1 loss against Swansea, Robins’ downbeat squad have lost all of their previous three showdowns in the Midlands by an aggregate score of 5-2.

As for the visitors, while Blackburn might have found themselves at the heart of a Championship relegation scrap last season the Rovers have come roaring back in a sensational fashion. Only continuing to shine under the guidance of John Eustace, the Lancashire-based outfit find the mood around Ewood Park at a red-hot high. Now with their sights set on booking a play-off ticket this year, Tuesday’s guests open the midweek fixtures with just their goal difference keeping them outside of the automatic promotion spots. Last seen over the weekend putting in another eye-catching performance as they secured a routine 2-0 win at home against QPR, Blackburn are unbeaten in all of their first seven Championship appearances so far this season. Marking their return from September’s international break with a 3-0 romp against Bristol City, Eustace will be excited by his side’s recent displays at the back. In fact, the Rovers have not conceded a single strike since returning from September’s fortnight interval.
