Our Three Predictions For Wrexham AFC vs Coventry City

  • Prediction 1 – Haji Wright To Score – 6/5
  • Prediction 2 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 10/13
  • Prediction 3 – Derby County To Win – 8/9

First Prediction For Wrexham AFC vs Coventry City – Haji Wright To Score – 6/5

The Coventry talisman may not have the numbers of teammate Brandon Thomas-Asante, but is one of the most dangerous attacking players in the EFL right now. While the American has blanked in his last 2 matches and completely missed out on action against Portsmouth last week, everyone knows what Wright can do.

With 6 goals in his last 9 appearances for club and country. Haji Wright leads the entire division in expected goals with 7.6, with Thomas-Asante the next best performer. While his teammate may be the more surefire hit, Wright could be a slightly riskier choice.

Second Prediction For Wrexham AFC vs Coventry City – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 10/13

On their day, Coventry have been able to tear apart any opponent they face, with notable wins over Millwall and Sheffield Wednesday by large margins prior to the international break. Boasting the best offence in England right now, the 34 goals Frank Lampard’s side has scored in the league has them averaging 2.83 goals per game.

Wrexham are able to give a good account of themselves on any day, scoring in every single match they have played this season bar their loss to Stoke City. While a midweek fixture may put some weariness in the legs of the Red Dragons, they should be able to get a goal as well.

Third Prediction For Wrexham AFC vs Coventry City – Coventry City To Win – 8/9

There is nothing stopping this Coventry City team as of late and they are likely to continue that run against a Wrexham side still struggling to adapt to the Championship. Phil Parkinson and his team can give most teams a run for their money as they did with Middlesbrough last weekend but a midweek defeat to Cardiff City may be a knock to their confidence.

Facing an imperious Coventry side, Wrexham may not be able to compete against the only side in the top 4 tiers yet to lose this season. While it could be a closer game for the Sky Blues than most, they should get their 9th win of the season.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head

Wrexham have had midweek action to handle heading into this Friday night clash, being dumped out of the EFL Cup at the hands of Cardiff City at home. Despite their division advantage, the Red Dragons struggled to handle the Bluebirds with the League One title contenders taking 23 shots, the most of any side that has visited the Racecourse Ground this season.

Their last league game was a more promising result, holding Middlesbrough to a draw despite sustained pressure from Rob Edwards’ side. Wrexham enter the weekend in 16th place, with 6 points in their last 5 matches. They sit 5 points above Sheffield United in the relegation zone.

Coventry City, meanwhile, are still the only unbeaten side in the EFL Championship, with 8 wins and 4 draws to their name so far. Wrexham’s result against Middlesbrough finally gave Coventry breathing room at the top of the table, now sitting 3 points clear of the Teessiders heading into the weekend. The Sky Blues are on a 6-game winning run and a total unbeaten run of 9, last losing to Millwall in the EFL Cup.

Their weekend game saw them beat Watford 3-1 at home, cruising to an easy lead before halftime. Victor Torp is expected to be back in this game after a tight calf, but will be without Milan van Ewijk due to suspension.

These two teams have played since the Hollywood takeover of Wrexham, playing in that iconic FA Cup tie during the Red Dragons’ National League title-winning campaign. The game ended 3-4 in the Welsh side’s favour after a back-and-forth affair which could have seen Coventry claw back a late equaliser from 4-1 down.

There have been 12 total games between these sides in history, with Coventry winning 8 to Wrexham’s 3.
