Preview & Prediction: Coventry City FC vs Luton Town FC
Coventry City will be hosting a tough opponent in the form of Luton Town, who have been in excellent form lately. Although Coventry City’s home form is good, they have struggled to score goals recently, with only five goals in their last five games. Luton Town, on the other hand, have been impressive away from home, scoring eight goals in their last five games on the road.
