Recent form

Coventry City

Coventry City's recent form has been a rollercoaster, with the team currently sitting in 16th position in the Championship. The Sky Blues are coming off a convincing 3-0 win against Blackburn Rovers, which broke a concerning three-game losing streak in all competitions. Their last six matches have seen them struggle offensively, averaging just one goal per game, while conceding 1.5 goals per match. Interestingly, 67% of their recent games have featured over 2.5 goals, suggesting high-scoring affairs are common. The team has managed only one clean sheet in this period, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities. Their 3-0 victory over Blackburn stands out as their highest-scoring game and only clean sheet in this stretch, potentially signaling a turnaround in their fortunes after a difficult run.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with their last six games yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The team has struggled defensively, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game, but has managed to keep two clean sheets in this period. Their most recent match, a goalless draw against Bristol City, marks their second consecutive game without defeat. The standout fixture in this run was their 3-2 victory over West Brom, which was their highest-scoring game and only match where they netted more than once. Despite their current 20th position in the league table, Sheffield Wednesday have shown some resilience, with 50% of their recent matches seeing both teams score and an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Coventry City

Coventry City's recent home form presents a mixed picture, with an interesting pattern emerging. The team has experienced a run of three consecutive home losses, including a League Cup defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, before bouncing back with a convincing 3-0 victory against Blackburn Rovers in their most recent home game. This win breaks the losing streak and showcases their ability to score goals, with two of their last five home matches seeing them net three times. Despite their mid-table league position, Coventry City has maintained a positive goal difference in their last six games, scoring more than they've conceded. Their home matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of games going over 2.5 goals, providing entertainment for fans. However, their inconsistency is evident, as they've alternated between wins and losses in their last five home fixtures across all competitions.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent away form has been inconsistent, with two wins, one draw, and three losses in their last six games. The team has struggled defensively in Championship matches, conceding three or more goals in three of their four away league games. However, they've shown promise in cup competitions, securing impressive victories against Blackpool and Grimsby, with the latter being a high-scoring 5-1 win. Their most recent away game resulted in a goalless draw against Bristol City, which might indicate an improvement in their defensive performance. Despite their struggles in the league, Sheffield Wednesday has managed to keep two clean sheets in their last six away games, suggesting potential for defensive stability.
