Deciding factors

Which factors will settle this match?

Home advantage, expected goals and the factor carrying the most weight here.

  1. Home advantage

    Home support is worth about a fifth of a goal to Coventry. It closes the gap but does not erase Everton's extra quality.

    Edge: Even

  2. Expected goals

    With 2.8 expected goals, the 2.5 line is near 50/50 (54% for the over).

    Edge: Even

  3. Quality gap

    Everton rate clearly stronger and the draw is only 26%. If they score first, the game should follow.

    Edge: Everton

Team shape

How will the two teams set up?

Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.

At home · promoted

Coventry City

Fresh up from the Championship, Coventry will prioritise staying solid at Coventry Building Society Arena. Their best openings usually come from corners, free kicks and fast counters.

Away

Everton

Everton are likely to sit in a compact shape on the road at Coventry Building Society Arena and wait for a single opening rather than chase control.

What could change

What would change the King Exchange prediction?

Team news and match events that would move our numbers.

  1. If Everton field a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.

  2. If Coventry score first

    The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.

  3. If a red card arrives in the first hour

    Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
