Our prediction for football Sunderland – Coventry City
The team from the “Stadium of Light” was failing a year ago. With 56 points, they finished only in sixteenth place. And their opponent then scored eight points more. But in the end, they finished in ninth place.
Now both sides have noticeably improved, and the key was the invitation of the current managers. But Regis le Bris moved from France in the summer. And he started great, and, by the way, he ended the regular season with a protracted decline of five defeats, however, it was initially clear that a place in the playoff zone would not go anywhere. In the end, with 76 points, they became fourth. Lampard was brought in to Coventry in November after long-time manager Robins failed to turn things around. And “Super Frankie” lifted his new charges to fifth place with 69 points.
The clubs eventually met in the playoffs. In the first match in Coventry, the hosts were able to respond to the opening goal. But in the end, they conceded in the 88th minute, losing.
