3612

We are set for a fantastic finish in the Championship promotion race and have a fixture on Tuesday that is going to have a massive influence on the outcome.

The game between Coventry City and Ipswich Town will be played on the 30th of April at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

The hosts begin this week in 9th place on 64 points while the visitors are in 3rd place on 90 points.

Coventry City come into the match on the back of a 0-0 draw at Blackburn Rovers in the Championship on the weekend.

Coventry City were reduced to 10 men in the 62nd minute but managed to prevent the hosts from scoring to take a point. As a result, Coventry City will remain in the Championship next season.

The draw at Blackburn Rovers means Coventry City have failed to win any of their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions.

There have been defeats against Southampton and Birmingham City away plus Hull City at home in the Championship. Coventry City also lost on penalties to Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-final.

Statistics show Coventry City have won 2 of their last 5 home Championship games. They have lost the other 3 matches and have kept just a single clean sheet in their last 9 home league fixtures.

Both teams have scored in each of Coventry City’s last 3 Championship games on home soil.

Ipswich Town make the trip to the Coventry Building Society Arena having been held to a 3-3 draw at Hull City in the Championship on Saturday.

Ipswich Town will be disappointed they did not take maximum points as they led the match three times. Hull City’s final equaliser came in the 87th minute.

The draw at Hull City means Ipswich Town have failed to win any of their 4 most recent Championship fixtures. There have been draws at home against Watford and Middlesbrough plus a 1-0 defeat at rivals Norwich City.

Trends show Ipswich Town are undefeated in 5 of their last 7 away games in the Championship.

However, they have won only 1 of their last 4 on the road in the league. Both teams have scored in Ipswich Town's last 12 away matches against Coventry City in all competitions.

Team news: Coventry City are without suspended defender Liam Kitching. Victor Torp, Fabio Tavares, Luis Binks, and Tatsuhiro Sakamoto are all injured.

Ipswich Town travel without any major injury or suspension concerns and should be at full strength.

Coventry City have nothing left to play for in terms of promotion but will be determined to finish the season with two home wins.

The pressure is on Ipswich Town to at least take a point from this game to ensure their automatic promotion chances are in their own hands on the final day. We predict both teams will score and the match to end level.
