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.
