Key factors

What will decide this match?

Home advantage first, then expected goals and the factor with the most influence on this match.

  1. Home advantage

    Edge: Even

    Home support is worth about a fifth of a goal to Coventry. That narrows the gap but does not cancel Man City's extra quality.

  2. Expected goals

    Edge: Goals

    3.4 expected goals is above the league average, and over 2.5 goals lands 66% of the time in our simulations.

  3. Quality gap

    Edge: Man City

    Man City rate clearly higher and the draw is only 17%. If they score first, the match should go their way.

Team set-up

How will the two teams line up?

Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.

Home · promoted

Coventry City

As a promoted club, Coventry will focus on keeping it tight at Coventry Building Society Arena. Their best chances tend to come from corners, free kicks and quick breaks.

Away

Manchester City

Man City have a squad deep enough to challenge for the title. They squeeze opponents on their trip to Coventry Building Society Arena, so Coventry will need a disciplined low block to stay in the game.

Risk radar

What could change the prediction?

The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.

  • If Man City name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.

  • If Coventry score first

    The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.
