Baggies set to continue their good run of form in Midland’s derby
3778

On Wednesday night, Midlands rivals Coventry City and West Brom go head-to-head at the Coventry Building Society Arena as both teams look to move up the Championship table.

Coventry

The Sky Blues are currently in 14th place in the Championship table. However, they are just four points off the play-off spots and six clear of the relegation zone.

City were on a four-game winning run in the Championship but have now taken just a point from their last two matches from a 1-0 defeat against Reading and a 3-3 home draw against Swansea last time out.

Coventry’s recent Championship games have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.

Mark Robins’ team has been in good form of late on home soil, as they are unbeaten in four home games in the English second tier.

Coventry has also kept clean sheets in three of their previous four league matches on home soil.

West Brom

The Baggies head into this game in red-hot form. Carlos Corberan’s team have recorded five straight wins, and another victory would see them leapfrog their Midland rivals in the table and put them in contention for the play-off spots.

The visitor's recent improvement in results has been down to superb defensive displays, as they have kept clean sheets in four of their previous five matches in the Championship.

The Baggies' recent away form has been good, too, as they have won three of their last four away games in the Championship.

Their recent away matches in the league have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven games on their travels.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that West Brom’s stellar recent run will continue in this clash, which will put the Baggies within touching distance of the play-off spots.
