Coventry City are aiming to revive their promotion playoff push as they host Portsmouth in a midweek English Championship fixture.

The hosts have stumbled slightly in recent weeks but remain solid in front of their fans. The visitors are also struggling at the moment and given their abysmal away record, a home win is on the cards here.

Coventry City Form

 
Coventry have found things a bit tricky lately, losing three of the last four matches, including a 2-1 home defeat to Burnley last time out. Despite that poor run, they remain in the mix for the promotion playoffs, sitting just one point off the top six.

The good news for Coventry City is that despite the defeat to Burnley, their home form remains solid as they are unbeaten in 11 of their last 13 matches in front of their fans. Frank Lampard's team had also picked up four consecutive wins prior to that result and will be confident of making a swift return to winning ways. 

Haji Wright has been one of the standout players for Coventry this season and have 11 Championship goals so far, including four in the last two home matches. He leads a solid attack for the Sky Blues, with seven of their last eight matches producing over 2.5 goals.

Portsmouth Form


Portsmouth are also struggling at the moment and like the hosts, have lost three of their last four Championship matches. John Mousinho's men were beaten 2-1 at Millwall in their previous fixture. 

That poor run means Portsmouth have been on a steady decline down the table in recent weeks. They are now just four points above the bottom three and need a quick turnaround to avoid getting dragged into the relegation scrap. 

Portsmouth will be targeting a positive result on Wednesday but their away form does not inspire much hope, having picked up just one win in their last 15 league matches on the road. They have lost nine of the last 10 fixtures in that run, with the last two producing over 2.5 goals.
 

Head to Head


Both teams have eight wins each and five draws from 21 previous matches. However, Coventry City have won two of the last three meetings while Portsmouth claimed a 4-1 home victory in the reverse fixture back in December

Verdict

Portsmouth are struggling at the moment and are even worse on their travels with nine defeats in their last 10 away matches. Coventry City, on the other hand, have won four of their last five home games and should have the upper hand here.
 
The reverse fixture produced over 2.5 goals and given the outcome for both teams in recent weeks, a repeat is expected here. Wright has four goals in two home matches and should find the net once again.
