      Coventry -1

      Maidstone hit the headlines in late January with a 1-2 away win over the Championship’s Ipswich Town and now must take on another Championship opponent in Coventry. The hosts are in good form over recent month, losing just two of their last 18 games in all competitions. At home, they’ve won four of their last six, drawing one, and losing one, scoring 17 goals in the process.

      Maidstone have won two, drawn two, winning one on penalties, and lost one of their last five in all competitions but their away from is pretty dire with just one win over their last eight games where they lost six and drew the other. With Coventry scoring goals for fun of late, they should be winning here by at least two goals.

      Both Teams to Score

      Having said that, The Sky Blues aren’t exactly famous for their stalwart defending. Indeed, Mark Robins’ side have 16 of their last 17 fixtures and at home have kept just two clean sheets over their last 10. Maidstone, despite being pretty woeful on the road, have actually scored in 11 of their last 13 on their travels. Both Teams to Score has to go in our Bet Builder.

        Haji Wright First Goalscorer

        American forward Haji Wright has been a great signing for Coventry. The 25-year-old has bagged 10 goals over his 32 Championship appearances as well as one in his previous two FA Cup appearances. He’s scored three over his last five for the club, as well as three over his last four on home soil. In such good form, we’re very much liking the odds on him to open the scoring.

        Callum O’Hare to have 1 or more Shots on Target

        Callum O’Hare has been making a nuisance of himself of late for the Sky Blues too four over his last 10 for the club and three over his last five at home. With a shot average of 1.4 per game this season, and against such inferior opposition, he should be landing at least one Shot on Target here.

        A Goal Score in Both Halves

        Coventry’s last 10 home games would’ve paid out on this pick eight times and it would’ve paid out in three of Maidstone’s last four away games too. With Coventry, in particular, in such great goal-scoring shape, as mentioned above, we should see at least one goal being scored per half.
