A red-hot Coventry City will visit Huddersfield, hoping to get all three points away from the local Terriers. The EFL Championship Week 39 match will start on March 29, at 4 PM CET.
Huddersfield Town
Huddersfield Town is a rare case of a team, which got promoted to the Premier League, spent multiple seasons there but then could not complete the return after being relegated, despite all the golden parachutes.
While the Terriers got close in 2022, this season is all about saving their spot for the next campaign in the Championship. Being on a four game winless streak, including a barely kept “0-0” draw at already relegated Rotherham United last week, keeps Huddersfield tied with Birmingham City for the coveted 21st place in the standings, making every remaining game more and more important.
Coventry City
Spending a decade in the newly created English Premier League right after its creation, Coventry City got relegated in 2001 to become a mainstay in the Championship.
For the exception of a few seasons spent in League One, the Sky Blues are one of the teams in the Championship, which always seems to be just outside the promotion zone. This time, however, Coventry seems to be peaking at the right time, as they are four points behind Norwich City with an extra game in the bag.
A massive performance at Molineux gave Coventry tickets to the FA Cup semi-finals date with Manchester United at Wembley on April 21, but earning three points during their trip up north this week is even more important.
Prediction ⚽️
Coventry swept the season series during the last campaign, but the Terriers snatched a point during a late goal on the road in September.
Now, with a red-hot Sky Blues coming to John Smith’s Stadium, they have to be considered as favorites, even if there is a bit of hangover left post their victory over Wolverhampton. We will side with the visitors to earn all three points on the road with 2.39 odds 🔥.
