Prediction

  • Coventry clocked just one shot on target during their 1-0 opening-day defeat to Stoke last weekend.
  • The Sky Blues responded well in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night though, with Ellis Simms' second-half strike proving enough to see off Championship rivals Bristol City.
  • Oxford United looked sharp and organised during their first game back in the second tier with goals from Mark Harris and Cameron Brannagan sealing a dominant 2-0 home win against Norwich.
  • A similarly impressive 2-0 midweek Carabao Cup win against Peterborough means that the feeling in the away camp is a positive one.

    this is too hard to predict and 1.62 seems very short for the home win

    Oxford surprised us all on the opener. Would think a poor starting Coventry will see a change of fortune here. A hard fought 2-1 home win
