- 考文垂队在锦标赛的最后13场比赛中赢了10场
- 谢菲尔德联队在最近三场主场比赛中有两场失分
- 谢菲尔德联队四人组;最近六场比赛的进球数都低于2.5个
天空蓝军可以在兰帕德的带领下继续上升
考文垂’;在弗兰克·兰帕德的带领下,他们的迅速崛起意味着他们在还有八场比赛的情况下,将牢牢争夺冠军季后赛的席位,他们可以在客场向谢菲尔德联队发出一份积极的结果声明。
当兰帕德在11月接管天空蓝队时,俱乐部在锦标赛的低谷中苦苦挣扎,但他们已经取得了非凡的成绩。
事实上,在过去的13场锦标赛中,他们从可能的39分中获得了30分,使他们在联赛积分榜上超过了西布罗姆维奇、布里斯托尔城和米德尔斯堡等球队。
尽管他们上一次以3比0战胜了季后赛希望的桑德兰队,但一份较为温和的赛程表起到了帮助作用。
刀片很难折断
访问谢菲尔德联队是他们本赛季最艰难的考验之一,但他们值得支持,以避免在布拉莫尔巷失利。
刀锋队在80分的情况下处于有利地位,可以确保自动晋级英超联赛,但他们最近在主场经历了几场棘手的比赛,本月早些时候与布里斯托尔城队战成1-1平,并在2月份输给了利兹队。
这可能是一场紧张而谨慎的比赛,有太多的变数,就正确的比分而言,谢菲尔德联队以1比1获胜;最近三场比赛只进了四个球。
- Coventry have won ten of their last 13 matches in the Championship
- Sheffield United have dropped points in two of their last three home contests
- Four of Sheffield United’s last six games have featured under 2.5 goals
Sky Blues can continue ascent under Lampard
Coventry’s meteoric rise under Frank Lampard means they are firmly in contention for the Championship playoff places with eight games to go and they can send out a statement with a positive result away to Sheffield United.
When Lampard took charge of the Sky Blues back in November, the club were languishing in the lower depths of the Championship but they have since put together an extraordinary run.
Indeed, they have claimed 30 points from a possible 39 in their last 13 Championship fixtures, putting them above the likes of West Brom, Bristol City and Middlesbrough in the league standings.
A softer fixture list has helped, although they cruised to a 3-0 win over fellow playoff hopefuls Sunderland last time out.
Blades are a tough nut to crack
A visit to Sheffield United represents one of their toughest tests of the season but they are worth backing to avoid defeat at Bramall Lane.
The Blades are in a strong position to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League with 80 points to their name but they have endured a couple of tricky matches at home recently, drawing 1-1 with Bristol City earlier this month and losing to Leeds in February.
This could be a tight and cagey contest with so much on the line and in terms of a correct score, 1-1 appeals with Sheffield United’s last three fixtures generating just four goals.
