Command Analysis
Coventry City
Current form
The Premier League rookie failed the opening leg, suffered four defeats in a row. Only in the fifth round did Coventry sensationally beat Nottingham Forest with a minimum score of 1:0. It was not without a bit of luck that they managed to win, as the foresters had a significant advantage, they scored 24 shots on goal, but they could not score. In general, Frank Lamparade's team has problems in attack, scored only one goal, and suffered all defeats with a dry score. With three points scored, Coventry are approaching the upcoming game in the penultimate place in the relegation zone.
Disqualifications and injuries
Coventry has Wright, Wolfenden, Eccles, and Amenda in the infirmary. Avoniyi will serve his suspension. Kesler-Hayden and van Ewijk are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Coventry have not scored in four of the five rounds in the Premier League.
More than three offsides were recorded in three of the four previous matches involving Coventry.
Newcastle avoided failure after numerous losses in the squad and the unexpected departure of Eddie Howe. In five rounds played in the Premier League, the team led by Matthias Jaissle has scored eight points and is approaching the upcoming meeting in 11th place in the table. Moreover, a victory today will allow us to rise immediately to the fourth place. On the eve of the international break, the Magpies beat Hull 2-1. It should be noted that Newcastle uses high pressure, manages to force opponents to make mistakes, but at the same time, noticeable gaps between the lines lead to the opponents threatening the goal a lot: even the modest Hull scored 21 shots on goal.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jauen is injured. Bern, Osula, Elanga, Ramsey, Dedic and Livramento are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In three of the last four matches involving Newcastle, there has been an exchange of goals scored.
Newcastle players have hit fewer shots on goal than their opponents in four of the previous five matches.
Approximate composition: The miner is Murphy, Tschau, Botman, Hall – Nico, Miley–Barnes, Willock, Fernandez-Pardo–Wissa.
In the last round, Coventry scored their first Premier League victory over Nottingham Forest, but you shouldn't overestimate that success too much. Then there was a bit of luck, the opponent did not use many chances. Frank Lampard's team's attacking problems have not disappeared. It won't be any easier today, given that Avonyi is disqualified and Wright is still injured.
Newcastle looks preferable to Coventry in terms of the season, having suffered only one defeat. The Magpies actively use high pressure and force their opponents to make mistakes. However, there are enough problems in defense due to decent gaps between the lines. At the same time, we still think that due to the tangible advantage in attack, the guests will be able to get three points today.
Our betting tip is for Newcastle to win by a factor of 2.23
In five rounds, Coventry managed to score only one goal, four defeats were by a landslide. The problems with the squad are most noticeable in the offensive line. We expect Coventry to be scoreless again today.
The second bet is that Coventry won't score with a 3.50 chance.
Betting on corners
On the corners, we pay attention to a promising trend among the owners. Coventry have played more innings from the corner flag than their opponents in three of the last four matches. Accordingly, we recommend another bet on the match.
Prediction – Coventry win on corners with a coefficient of 2.12
