Championship: Two sides in pretty good form get together for this game. Coventry City could have a tiny edge with their 3rd place in the standings?
- Luton Town have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Coventry City have the fewest conceded goals (6) in Championship
These are hustling days for the home side, as they had a game only four days ago in the Championship. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at AFC Bournemouth.
Luton Town form and stats
When playing at home in the Championship, Luton Town have managed 1 win, 2 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 4 games. Luton Town have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
Luton faced defeat in their previous match, away at AFC Bournemouth (1-2). Attacking player Harry Cornick outdid all others in that match and received a match rating of 7.04 out of 10. Cornick hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.
Before that, Luton drew at home versus Swansea City.This is expected to be a close game, with Luton Town perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Luton Town as a small favourite), we find 15 games. Luton has won seven of these, drawn five and lost three.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Luton as they have a new game in only three days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Huddersfield Town are visiting.
The Luton fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 6 goals in 4 league matches. Luton have conceded 8 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Coventry City form and stats
The visitors, who have the fewest conceded goals (6) in Championship, are W1-D1-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Championship.
The supporters enjoyed Coventry's previous game versus Peterborough United (placed 21st), a Championship 3-0 win played at home. Attacker Viktor Gyökeres got a player rating of 9.33 in the game. "Man of the match" Gyökeres scored two goals, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 4 of 7 times.
Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Millwall that ended 1-1.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Coventry playing away and similar expectations, we found 15 relevant matches. Results were four Coventry City wins, six draws and five defeats.
A new game in only three days for Coventry City, the Championship home match versus Fulham. Busy days.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Coventry's away games in the league this season with only 2 goals from 4 matches. As opposed to that, Coventry have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.
