Coventry City and Sunderland meet in the league in similarly matched conditions that make for a compelling watch. Both are near the bottom of the table and both lost their most recent league game. The hosts lost at home 0-1, while the visitors lost away 0-2. Coventry City still have not found a league win in two straight games, though their home attack has shown some moments to threaten. Sunderland lost their most recent league game but before that were unbeaten in three straight, especially in the Europa games where they got results. The defence of both teams remains a point to watch, as they have conceded in double figures each over the past eight games. This game is likely to be a midfield exchange where neither dares to open up fully. Both know another defeat will increase the pressure. Coventry City at home should have slightly more possession and try to keep the game in their hands. If the visitors still concede easily as before, the hosts have a chance to take points in a tight game like this.
