The visitors are not competing for anything in the championship, and it will be very difficult to earn even one point in Coventry.

Command Analysis
Coventry City
EnglandCurrent form
Coventry City played their last Championship match at home against the leaders Burnley and failed to achieve a positive result. In this match, the hosts from the city of the same name were not inferior to their opponent in anything, they scored 14 shots on goal, but could not earn three points, losing 1-2 in the end. The defeat sent the club beyond the TOP 6, to seventh place in the standings, one point behind sixth-placed Bristol City. The team has suffered three defeats in the last five games, having previously lost to Sheffield Wednesday (1:3) and Derby County (0:2). It is worth noting that the team scores a lot – 57 goals in 40 games. We hope that the team will break the series of two failures in a row, but the game has something and where to improve.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Dovin and Eccles will miss the game.
Interesting betting trends
- Coventry City have averaged 1.5 yellow cards in their last five games.
- The Sky Blues score an average of 1.4 goals per game.
The approximate line-up: Collins, van Ewijk, Thomas, Kitching, Dasilva, Grimes, Allen, Sakamoto, Rudoni, Mason-Clark, Wright.
Portsmouth
EnglandCurrent form
After 40 rounds of the English Championship, Portsmouth has 45 points and occupies 17th place in the standings. At the moment, Pompey are four points ahead of their opponents from the relegation zone and are one of the worst teams in the season in terms of goals conceded – 63 goals conceded. In the last game, John Mousinho's team was defeated by Millwall (1:2), and the game before they beat Blackburn with a minimum score (1:0). The squad is quite capable of retaining its place in the second most important league in England, but it needs to improve its defensive game and start winning. The team lost 19 matches in the season, and this is one of the worst indicators since the start of the championship.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Atkinson, Bowat, Farrell, Lane, Lang, Mattheus, Shaughnessy will not help the club.
Interesting betting trends
- The team concedes an average of 1.7 goals per game.
- Portsmouth have won only three times in their last 10 games.
Approximate composition: Schmid, Williams, Poole, Ogilvy, Bramall, Potts, Dozzell, Richie, Devlin, Murphy, Bishop.

1.58Tip and bets
We will give preference to the Coventry club. The team is in good shape, is aiming to compete in the English Championship and intends to complete a series of two defeats in a row. Frank Lampard's men will enter the field solely for victory and will fight for three points. We believe that the hosts will take advantage of a more powerful squad and outplay their opponent.
Prediction – Coventry City win with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on the total
You should expect a lot of goals from this match. Coventry City will take advantage from the first minute and will attack a lot, as they need to break into the TOP 6. The Sky Blues have finished the last four games out of five in the Championship with a total of more, and we believe that the scoring extravaganza will take place.
The betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.85
Betting on team goals
The hosts have not exchanged goals with their opponents in the last two out of four matches in the national championship and do not intend to concede from the opponent. We can assume that in today's confrontation, Coventry City will devote a lot of time to defensive actions and keep the gates intact.
The betting tip is that both will not score with a coefficient of 1.98
