Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry Preview & Prediction (19:45 KO)
Coventry City make the trip to South Yorkshire to face fellow Championship side Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup fourth round on Friday night.
Funnily enough, these two sides met just six days ago in the league. The Sky Blues ran out 2-1 winners at Hillsborough on Saturday afternoon, and will be hoping for a similar result this time around to progress into the Last 16 of the FA Cup for the first time since 2009.
Coventry are the most in-form team in the Championship right now. Mark Robbins side are unbeaten in 10 matches in all competitions, including seven wins and three draws. They have won 9 of their last 14 games and currently occupy a play-off place in the league.
Sheffield Wednesday on the other hand are in a relegation dog fight,, sitting second from bottom and five points adrift of safety in the Championship. The Owls did win three games on the spin, but have lost their last two since then. This if course includes the 201 home defeat to Coventry last weekend.
Although Coventry will be more concerned with securing a play-off spot in the Championship once again this season, they do have a great chance of making it to the last 16 of the FA Cup here. Similarly, Sheffield Wednesday will be more concerned at ensuring they don’t drop back into League One, and won’t have any huge aspirations of a big FA Cup run.
Based on their recent form and their head-to-head record, we at SportsLens can’t see past anything other than a victory for the visitors, and we expect them to do so relatively comfortably with what will likely be a rotated side.
Prediction: Sheffield Wednesday 0-2 Coventry City

Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry Betting Tip 2: Matt Godden To Score @ 15/8
Coventry have been scoring goals from all over the pitch this season, with their forwards, midfielders and even defenders chipping in on a regular basis with key goals. One man who knows where the back of the net is in Coventry colours is Matt Godden.
The Coventry striker scored a brace in their 6-2 FA Cup third round victory over Oxford United earlier this month, and will be hoping to add to that tally once again tonight at Hillsborough.
Godden has scored nine goals in all competitions for the Sky Blues this season, and looks great value to find the back of the net once again in the FA Cup tonight. Hence why we at SportsLens are backing Godden to score tonight for his side, priced at 15/8 with the best football betting sites.
