THE PREDICTION
Coventry currently sit four points above Nottingham Forest after both teams drew over the weekend. Forest are now nervously looking over their shoulder as they sit in 21st place, just three points above the relegation places. This may lead to a turgid encounter at St Andrew’s, with both teams knowing they could ill afford to lose. The visitors can call upon new signing Glenn Murray, as the striker reunites with manager Chris Hughton. Forest will hope that a player with the experience of Murray can make the difference in this match, but Coventry have proven themselves as a difficult nut to crack especially at home. Whilst the result itself could go either way, expect under 2.5 goals scored.
