Coventry vs Burnley tips and predictions

Compelling Championship fixture should be tight

There are arguments to be made for both sides in this clash so be careful when picking a winner. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick.

These sides have impressed at the back. Looking solid when clearing their lines Coventry haven't conceded at all during their latest 3 matches. Meanwhile Burnley have been impressive defensively on the road. They've conceded an average of 0.7 goals per game over their last 7 matches away from home.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, 2 of the last 3 have been draws.

Few could argue with the idea that both sides can get in on the act as they could be well matched. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No looks reasonable on this occasion.

Coventry have drawn 8 of their last 19 matches, including their most recent match when they drew 0-0 with Bristol City last Tuesday. Burnley have drawn 8 of their last 15 matches. Their most recent stalemate was when they drew with Stoke last Wednesday. It isn't the most exciting thing you'll read today and it feels like a match to be circumspect about and so the draw is certainly food for thought. A stalemate is on the cards after what could be a low-scoring affair.
