Coventry v Southampton Tips

#Coventry. The hosts won the last five matches back to back and 3-0 midweek. They are on their own turf and should be able to win here vs Southampton. The travellers tied vs West Brom in midweek matches.

Football match in the second division of England with the team that has been leading the standings facing at home the Southampton team, which is in seventh position so far. Southampton is one of the teams that also promises promotion, and I think they will be able to match the leader of the table.

Southampton are unbeaten in their last 7 away games, winning 5 of these matches, so are in good form away from home. Coventry are also in good form and sit top of the table. However, at this price the away team has a chance in my eyes. I'm backing an away win.

Coventry went through a lean spell at the start of the year but look back to their best now, winning their last 6. They scored at least two in each of them and could easily do that against a Southampton side that aren't at full strength in defence. Southampton, though, are always good for a goal as they have scored in all but one away game. So I like the over.

Coventry and Southampton have met on four previous occasions with a 100% record for BTTS. I can see the same thing happening here, with Southampton's away BTTS record sitting at 89% ??' it can't be ignored.

In the last four games the two teams met, both teams scored. Southampton are unbeaten in five games and have a dangerous attacking side. Coventry are also a threat.
