James Buttler looks ahead to the Championship match at Bramall Lane on Friday evening and thinks Frank Lampard can outwith Chris Wilder.
Sheffield United v Coventry City
Coventry City are in a good place as the new manager bounce under Frank Lampard has continued long after he’s got his feet under the table. The Sky Blues are now serious playoff contenders, and they will be looking to continue their impressive run under Lampard when they visit Bramall Lane to take on automatic promotion hopefuls Sheffield United on Friday evening.
Coventry are one of the Championship’s in-form sides, winning ten of their last 13 league matches. Their recent 3-0 win over high-flying Sunderland showcased their attacking threat, and they now sit in fifth spot and are firmly in the playoff mix with just eight games remaining.
The only blip in Coventry’s away form came in their last match away at relegation threatened Derby. The 2-0 defeat ended a run of four straight away wins.
Promotion from the Championship getting closer
Sheffield United, meanwhile, are on the brink of securing a return to the Premier League but have shown some vulnerabilities at home. They have dropped points in two of their last three matches at Bramall Lane, including a 1-1 draw with Bristol City and a home defeat to Leeds. While they remain a formidable opponent, they may struggle to dominate a resurgent Coventry side.
Under 2.5 match goals is a play, but I’m pro-Coventry with my selection and the 4/5 on Cov or the draw is the safe play, but I’m taking Coventry to win at 45/16 with vBet.
