Wrexham vs Coventry City

Coventry City are aiming to strengthen their lead at the top of the table when they travel to Wrexham for a Friday night English Championship fixture.

The visitors have been heads and shoulders clear of everyone else this season and are looking almost unstoppable at the moment. They should have the upper hand over the hosts, who are looking unconvincing lately.

Wrexham News

Wrexham have struggled for consistency this season, picking up just three wins from their 12 Championship matches so far. They are currently in the bottom half of the table and played out a 1-1 draw at Middlesbrough in their previous fixture.

That result means Wrexham are now winless in six of their last seven matches across all competitions. Phil Parkinson's team are also without a win in three of their last four home matches and were beaten 2-1 by Cardiff City in a midweek EFL Cup fourth round clash.

Wrexham often show some quality going forward and have scored in nine of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they are usually shaky at the back, failing to keep a clean sheet in eight of those fixtures.

Coventry City News

Coventry City are the top dogs in the Championship this season and remain unbeaten after 12 matches. Frank Lampard’s team are currently three points clear at the top of the table and will be keen to open up a wider gap.

It has been smooth sailing for Coventry City lately, having won their last six Championship matches, earning a 3-1 home victory over Watford last time out. The Sky Blues are also on a three-match winning run on their travels.

Goals are not a problem for Coventry City, who have scored in their last six matches, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in the last two fixtures on this run.

Head to Head

Wrexham have never lost in this fixture, with two wins and a draw from three previous matches against Coventry City. The last meeting was an FA Cup clash in 2023, which ended 4-3 in favour of the Welsh side.

Verdict

Wrexham v Coventry

Wrexham and Coventry City have shown some attacking quality lately, and both teams could be backed to score here. With visitors’ last six matches producing over 2.5 goals, a similar outcome could also be expected.

Coventry are on a six-match winning run and will be feeling confident heading into Friday's clash. They should get the better of Wrexham, who have looked a bit out of sorts lately.
