Coventry City have taken nine points from their ten league games to Palace’s seven, and with both defenses conceding at a heavy rate — Coventry City’s goal difference sits at minus nine, Palace’s at minus fourteen — this looks tight rather than cagey. Expect goals at both ends before Coventry City’s extra edge in forward areas, led by Jack Rudoni, nudges it their way. Signal: Coventry City 2-1 Crystal Palace.
