Coventry 8/13 to beat Tranmere in Sunday’s League One matchup

Competition: League One

Market: Coventry win

Odds: 8/13 @ Bet 365

Looking to extend their buffer in the play-offs, Coventry will host Tranmere on Sunday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Coventry might be struggling with their consistency of late, the Blues still find themselves firmly in the hunt to land a play-off spot this season. In their opening 11 League One matches this year, they have recorded five wins, five draws, and one defeat, scoring 16 and conceding 14 in return. With a points tally of 20, they currently sit fifth in the standings and a victory this weekend could see them climb into the automatic positions. As for their recent run of results, while Coventry may have won just one of their last five matches across all competitions, the Blues are unbeaten in their last eight matches on home soil, winning seven of those matchups.

As for the visitors, while Tranmere may have picked up a much-needed cup victory in midweek, they are enduring a worrying start to the new League One campaign. In their 11 matches this season, they have recorded just two wins, three draws, and six defeats, scoring 15 and conceding 21 in return. Now sat 20th in the standings and one place above the drop zone, it is also worth noting that no side outside of the drop zone holds a worse defensive tally. As for their recent run of results, Tranmere have lost back-to-back League One appearances and have failed to win any of their five matches on the road, losing four of those contests.
