Game Prediction
In the 39th round of the English Championship on March 28, 2025, a match between Sheffield United and Coventry City will take place. The hosts cannot afford any slip-ups to stay among the leaders, but the guests also need points to maintain their position in the top-6.
Our prediction for the match Sheffield United vs Coventry City
Sheffield United secured a confident return to the Premier League in 2023. However, whether with Heckingbottom or Wilder, they remained in the relegation zone and prematurely returned to the Championship. Meanwhile, Coventry has been stuck at that level for a while. Last season, they finished mid-table, in ninth place.
In the new season, the team started poorly, and Robins, who had coached City since 2017, paid the price with his job. But the managerial change worked: with Lampard, by spring, having won six of their last seven matches, the club climbed to fifth place. For United, a 1-0 in the derby with Wednesday marked their 25th victory since the start of the competition. With 70 points, they lead, albeit tied with Leeds, while Burnley lags by a couple of points – these three teams will compete for two direct passes to the EPL.
Wilder's squad is pragmatic. They score 1.39 goals per round but concede almost half as many – 0.74. Coventry is slightly more prolific, with a 1.45/1.26 ratio.
