Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that it's fairly unlikely that this fixture will have 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics are in line with our predictive algorithm on this one. Sunderland and Coventry have rarely treated their fans to a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in the Championship individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a strong favourite draw or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.29.
