Coventry go up against Leeds this coming Saturday for a Championship meeting at Elland Road.

Leeds are placed sixth with 11 points after six matches. Coventry occupy a position as 19th in the league on five points.

Leeds are looking to avenge a disappointing defeat against Coventry in their last meeting. According to the bookmakers, a win for the home team looks like a likely scenario.

Leeds go into their next Championship match, scoring a humble average of 1.4 per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane 14 times, while conceding seven. That amounts to an average of 0.7 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring six times.

Coventry are currently not the most scoring team in the Championship, as they only found the back of the net ten times in ten matches. This is an average of just one goals a game in which they conceded 15 times, an average of 1.5 per game. They managed one clean sheets in these.

The last time these two sides facing off here came up against each other, Coventry came away with a 2-1 win. They have a similar outcome in mind at Elland Road, but face stern opposition, of course.

Leeds vs Coventry Prediction

Leeds Form

Leeds beat Hull by 2-0, lost 0-1 against Burnley, before defeating Cardiff 0-2. Leeds only pulled off two wins from a possible six in recent Championship matches on home soil. Of the remaining four matches, they drew one and lost three, as they scored ten and conceded seven goals.

A second place finish is the absolute minimum Leeds should achieve this coming season where the main target is of course the title.

Coventry Form

A draw is all that prevents Coventry from having nothing to show for their previous three games. They claimed this single draw against Watford as the match ended 1-1 before getting trounced against Tottenham by a 1-2 score. Last time out, more disappointment followed as Swansea won the game and the exact score was 1-2. Coventry didn't manage a single away win in their last six Championship matches, but managed three draws, while suffering three defeats. They conceded eight and scored three goals themselves.

A second place finish is the absolute minimum Leeds should achieve this coming season where the main target is of course the title.

Bookmakers have Leeds down as rather big favourites for the win against Coventry. While it might prove a bit more troublesome than odds suggest, we find it equally tempting to side with the hosts.

Leeds scored nine goals and conceded three in their last four games against teams from the bottom half of the Championship table. They collected ten points and three victories. Leeds lost just once so far this season in the Championship and after six games played they recorded three wins and two draws Coventry are looking at one win, two draws and three defeats in the Championship.
