Coventry vs Newcastle prediction: under 3.5 and the best odds
Coventry v 
Newcastle
Result: wrong. The call was under 3.5 goals; the match ended 4-1. Every call so far.
Newcastle are favoured away to Coventry at the Coventry Building Society Arena, kick-off 20:00 WAT. The fair price for an away win is 2.21. Coventry’s long absence list is the fact that shapes the game most.
Coventry are without Amenda, Awoniyi, Eccles, Woolfenden and Wright. Awoniyi is suspended after a red card, while Amenda is out with a calf injury and Woolfenden with a knee injury. Wright is out with a muscle injury and Eccles is out with injury, which removes depth from the squad.
Kesler-Hayden is a doubt with a muscle injury and Latibeaudiere is a doubt with injury. If neither clears, cover looks very short.
Newcastle are without Elanga with a knee injury and Jaouen with a muscle injury. Burn is a doubt with an ankle injury and Joelinton with a thigh injury. Livramento, Osula and Ramsey are also doubts, which leaves the bench short if they do not clear.
Coventry form:
- W 1-0 vs Nottingham Forest (away)
- L 1-3 vs Aston Villa (home)
- L 0-5 vs Brighton (home)
- L 0-1 vs Manchester City (away)
- L 0-1 vs Hull City (home)

| Outcome | Price at 1xBet Nigeria | Chance the price gives | Price without the cut |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home | 3.45 | 29.0% | 3.50 |
| Draw | 3.75 | 26.7% | 3.81 |
| Away | 2.18 | 45.9% | 2.21 |
My read: under 3.5 goals. Bookmakers’ prices with the cut removed put it at 65%, and three of Coventry’s last five ended with one goal in total.
Only stake what you can afford to lose.
