Coventry take on the visitors Huddersfield in the round 8 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Monday, September 25th at Coventry Building Society Arena (Coventry).
Coventry are not as good as in the previous season. The Sky Blues have won only two trophies in their history, the Cup and the Super Cup, both in 1987. Back then, the team consistently played in the top division of the country until 2001. However, they failed to make a return and gradually regressed, eventually finding themselves in League 2, the fourth division of the country. Their climb back was much quicker, and now the players of this team could easily compete in the Premier League. They finished 5th in the previous season and reached the playoff final, but they lost in a penalty shootout to Luton... Perhaps this disappointment is affecting them now, as the start of the new season is not impressive. Mark Robins' team began with a loss to Leicester (and AFC Wimbledon in the EFL Cup). Then they beat Middlesbrough, but then had a series of draws, which was halted in the last round when they lost 2-3 to Cardiff.

The Terriers were once a leading team in England, but that was a century ago. In the 1920s, they won all three league titles and the only Cup and Super Cup. However, in recent decades, things haven't gone well, and it was only under David Wagner, through the playoffs, that they managed to break into the Premier League. They stayed there for 2 consecutive seasons but were then relegated unceremoniously. Moreover, in the previous season, relegation to League 1 seemed inevitable. However, Neil Warnock took on the seemingly hopeless task of saving Town, even calling himself a complete idiot at the presentation when discussing the situation with his new team. In the end, they not only won the survival race but also climbed to 18th place with 53 points. Currently, though, there was a defeat in the EFL Cup, a 2-3 loss to Middlesbrough at home, and only 1 point in the first 4 rounds. But then they started winning, defeating West Bromwich and Rotherham. However, in the last round, there was a truly competitive draw with Stoke City.
In 2023, the Sky Blues won both matches with an overall score of 6-0. Judging by the odds, the home team is expected to win this match. However, considering the scoring abilities of both teams, it's worth betting on total over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
