The Owls have shown glimpses of improvement in recent weeks, but inconsistency continues to plague them. After a crucial win on matchday six, they followed it up with two draws – both from winning positions – most recently a 2-2 home draw with Birmingham City.
Their biggest concern remains their home form: winless in their last seven league games at Hillsborough. The inability to hold onto leads could hurt them again against a free-scoring Coventry side.
Betting on Coventry City
- 1XBet Spread: –0.75
- 1XBet Moneyline: 1.72
- 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5
Coventry appear to have rediscovered their rhythm, bouncing back from a four-match winless run with two convincing victories, including a 4-0 demolition of Millwall last weekend.
The Sky Blues are the highest-scoring team in the league (22 goals) and have scored seven goals in their last two games. They’re also unbeaten away from home this season, collecting eight of a possible 12 points on the road.
MatchPlug Prediction for Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry City
Coventry’s attacking prowess meets one of the Championship’s leakiest defences, making the visitors firm favourites. With the Owls struggling at home and Coventry in top form, this should be a high-scoring affair.
Final Prediction: Coventry City to win & Over 2.5 goals.
