Bristol City form

Fresh from their finish in 11th place in the Championship last season, Bristol City will look to prove themselves at a better competitive level this time around under Liam Manning. In a strong opening to their league season this August, the team drew at the MKM Stadium of Hull City and scored their first win over Millwall at Ashton Gate. Despite their unbeaten start in the Championship, Bristol City fell to defeat in the EFL Cup against Coventry. A second-half goal from Ellis Simms sealed their fate on the night.

Bristol City Predicted Lineup

O'Leary; Tanner, Vyner, Dickie, Pring; Williams, Knight, Sykes, Bird, Mehmeti; Armstrong

Coventry City form

Coventry City, seeking a comeback to the Premier League for a long time, has made quite an erratic start to their 2024-25 Championship season. They had lost the opening game against Stoke City but gave a good response with the 3-2 victory over Oxford United, where Haji Wright and Milan van Ewijk were on target. The Robins next welcome Bristol City before another match with Oxford United in the EFL Cup. Brandon Thomas-Asante arrived from West Bromwich Albion in the summer and is now itching to excite the crowd at the Coventry Building Society Arena as much as he did at The Hawthorns.

Coventry City Predicted Lineup

Dovin; Van Ewijk, Latibeaudiere, Binks, Bidwell; Rudoni, Eccles, Torp; Sakamoto, Wright, Simms
