Competition: Championship

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 2/5 @ 888sport

Two sides battling it out in the bottom-half of the Championship table, Luton Town will host a struggling Coventry on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, last seen watching their unbeaten run come to an abrupt end, Luton will be seeking an immediate response here. In their opening eight Championship contests so far this season, they have recorded two wins, three draws and three defeats, scoring seven and conceding eight in return. Managing to muster a points tally of nine, they open the midweek fixtures sat down in 18th and two points adrift of breaking into the top-half. As for their recent run of results, last seen earlier in the month getting hit with a 2-1 loss at the hands of Wigan, that was Luton’s first Championship defeat from their previous four outings. Likewise, it should also be noted, Wednesday’s hosts have seen each of their last five second-tier contests finish with over 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, only continuing on a woeful start to the 2022/23 campaign, Coventry are in the midst of a public struggle. In their opening five Championship contests so far this season, they are yet to record a single victory, with one draw against four defeats, scoring five and conceding 11 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of one from a possible 15, they open the midweek fixtures sat rock-bottom of the standings and already seven points adrift of breaking out of the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 3-0 drumming away at Norwich, Coventry have lost each of their last five domestic matchups across all formats. Likewise, with Wednesday’s guests seeing all bar one of their previous six contests finishing with over 1.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
