  • Coventry City seeking first-leg advantage in the Championship playoff semi-final against Sunderland.
  • The hosts have a strong home record, winning seven of their last eight matches at home.
  • Coventry opened the scoring in their last eight home matches and aim to continue this trend, leveraging Sunderland's recent form.
Coventry City vs Sunderland

Coventry City will be targeting the first leg advantage when they host Sunderland in the Championship playoff semi-final.
 
The hosts had a solid end to the season, driven by a fine record in front of their fans while the Black Cats have been out of sorts in recent weeks. With the visitors also struggling on their travels, a home win is expected here.

Verdict

Sunderland appear to have picked the wrong time to suffer a dip in form and face a Coventry City side, who are doing their best work at home. The hosts have won seven of their last eight home matches and given their record in this fixture, should claim the first leg advantage here.
 
Coventry City have opened the scoring in their last eight home matches and that trend is expected to continue here. They will also be looking to maintain their solid defensive record and having won to nil in two of the last three matches against Sunderland, a repeat is on the cards.
