Coventry City v Queens Park Rangers: Prediction, Tips and Odds

Coventry City are ahead of Tuesday's visitors Queens Park Rangers on goal difference only as the two sides look to close the gap on the Championship play-off spots, but both sides are in good form ahead of this midweek clash and will feel confident of a result.

Coventry City v Queens Park Rangers betting tips and predictions

Both teams to score - 4/5

Coventry suffered a humbling 4-1 loss at home to Ipswich Town in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday to hand them back-to-back defeats for the first time since October, but QPR represent a more manageable challenge than the Premier League outfit and second-tier leaders Leeds United.

However, six goals conceded in two games give the Hoops a chance going forward, especially considering that they have failed to score in just one of their last nine competitive outings.

Marti Cifuentes’ side have scored 14 times in this period but they, like their hosts, have some defensive fragility in their midst.

They have shipped 18 goals in this nine-match period, including a 6-2 defeat at Leicester City in the FA Cup last month.

Away from home both teams have scored in four of Rangers' last five assignments and the same could happen again when they visit a Coventry side who have conceded in four of their last five at home.

Both teams to score has landed in each of the last three meetings between these sides and it looks a good price to happen again on Tuesday.

Jack Rudoni to score or assist - 6/5

Only Tom Fellows and Finn Azaz have registered more Championship assists than Jack Rudoni this season and Coventry’s 23-year-old playmaker could be in line to contribute again on Tuesday.

Rudoni has 11 goal contributions in 31 league appearances for the Sky Blues this term and eight of these have come on home turf, with an average of a goal contribution every 155 minutes.

He laid on Coventry’s only goal at the weekend and has three assists in his last six games, so back him to make a difference.

Kieran Morgan to be booked - 10/3

Kieran Morgan has started just 15 Championship games for the R's this season, but the 18-year-old has amassed five yellow cards in this short period and all five of those bookings have come on his travels.

He has averaged a card every 102 minutes away from home and four of these have come in his last six away days.

He looks like decent value to add to his disciplinary record against a home side who rank among the top seven for opposition yellow cards this season.
