Who needs points more?

The level of self-confidence in the Coventry team is at an extremely high level after a more than convincing 4-1 victory over one of the best teams in the league, Sheffield United. After three new points, they are in 10th place on the table with only 5 points less than Middlesbrough, which is in a place that guarantees participation in the playoffs. Due to the very difficult matches that await them until the end of the championship, such as those against Fulham, WBA, Huddersfield, Blackburn, this match is very important to them if they want to mature the connection to the leading teams. In the already mentioned match against Sheffield, they were more than dominant and sent as many as 13 shots into the opponent's goal, and they allowed the opponent only 4 shots towards their goal after the match was already resolved. It just shows that they are equally good in defence and attack.
Today, they welcome a team in their field that is in a completely different mood from them and with completely different ambitions from them. After entering the championship this season, they have a lot of difficulties getting used to the difference in the level of football between this league and the third league in which they were until recently. This is clearly stated in their position on the table, they are currently only two places away from the relegation zone and today's opponent will certainly not be a good opportunity for them to improve their points balance. In the last matches, they have only one victory, two draws and two defeats. They achieved that one victory against Peterborough, who will have big problems staying in the league. On the other hand, their inconsistency in the game is shown by the fact that they lost to Barnsley, also one of the teams that are fiercely fighting for survival. In those mentioned 5 games, they scored only 4 goals and it is clear that with such attacking options, they can hardly threaten playful Coventry.
My prediction ;
Outcome: Coventry to win
Goals: Under 1.5
