Coventry to win/win or draw

For our higher risk bet we’re going for a straight Coventry win or to play it safer you can go for the double chance market, betting on Coventry to win or draw. Sunderland come into the play-offs on a horrible run of form, losing their last five matches and failing to score in four of those games. Coventry have been really strong under Frank Lampard and they’ve won seven of their last eight at home (losing to Burnley), keeping a clean sheet in four of their last five and beating Sunderland 3-0 in that run.

 

Ellis Simms to have a shot on target/score anytime

Ellis Simms has chipped in with a few important goals for Coventry this season and now would be the perfect time to refind his form in front of goal. The striker has started the last five matches and he’s the selection to have a shot on target for the lower odds bet, or to score anytime for the higher risk bet builder.

 

Ben Sheaf Tackles/Cards Bet

Ben Sheaf has been carded in his last two matches and in those games he’s made four fouls. He made five tackles in the last game of the season against Middlesbrough and six in the match before that against Luton. We’re predicting Coventry will be on the front foot in this game so they’ll want to win the ball back quickly in midfield.
