Coventry City previously faced Middlesbrough on Sunday and the final score was a 0:0 draw at home. The squad remains unbeaten in eight games, recording five draws and three wins for the period. Performing at home was of little help throughout the last ten Coventry City meetings as the hosts won 2 times and the guests won 3 times. Giving that the result in five of the side’s last ten outings was a draw, this was the most common outcome in the their recent matches. Looking at the team’s previous five encounters, it becomes apparent that one featured over 2.5 goals and three witnessed goals at both ends. Throughout these, Coventry City’s efforts paid off as the team managed to prevent goals in their net two times and failed to score on their own in only one encounter. The parties netted a negligible number of goals during the team’s previous five games, scoring an average of 1.8 per match.
