Coventry v Leicester predictions

A superb run featuring just one defeat in their last 11 league matches has propelled Coventry into playoff contention in the Championship but they could come unstuck against Leicester City on Saturday.

The Sky Blues have posted three wins in their last four games, profiting from the return of key midfielder Callum O'Hare from injury, but table-toppers Leicester represent a step up in class.

The Foxes have won 21 of their 26 league fixtures, establishing a ten-point buffer between themselves and second-placed Ipswich, and they are cruising towards the title and automatic promotion.

They are a solid bet to win this match, but expect a bit of fight from Coventry, who hit Oxford United for six in the FA Cup third round last time out and have scored at least twice in each of their last five matches.

A bet on a Leicester win and both teams to score should be the way to go for the game at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

Key stat

Coventry have scored in each of their last 11 games in all competitions.
