THE PREDICTION
Coventry extended their unbeaten run to seven Championship matches, following a 1-2 victory over Wycombe and following those three points on the road, return to St Andrew’s for a home clash vs Huddersfield. The Terriers had a weekend to forget on the South Coast, as they were thrashed 5-0 at the hands of Bournemouth. Head coach Carlos Corberan rotated a number of his key players in this match, only for it to backfire dramatically as his side were punished at the hands of the Cherries. With the likes of Fraizer Campbell, Isaac Mbenza and Pipa set to return to the starting line-up here, a vastly improved performance is expected here against the Sky Blues. Coventry’s last two victories have seen them pick up a draw in the following fixture and a similar outcome appears likely here, with Huddersfield bouncing back from their weekend humiliation by picking up a point in this game.
