Coventry City v Luton Town: Sky Bet Championship Play-Off Final
Coventry City host Plymouth Argyle on Tuesday

Coventry City will welcome Plymouth Argyle to the Coventry Building Society Arena for an EFL Championship midweek clash on Tuesday.

The home side are coming into the game on the back of a crushing 3-0 away victory over Millwall on Saturday. Matt Godden, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto and Ben Sheaf all found the back of the net to guide the Sky Blues to victory.

Plymouth, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a routine 2-0 home win over Sunderland. Morgan Whittaker and Finn Azaz scored first-half goals to inspire the victory.

The respective victories left both sides tied on 19 points in 19th and 20th spots respectively. Plymouth are one spot higher based on goal difference.

Coventry City vs Plymouth Prediction

The international break gave Coventry City a chance to hit the reset button, with the Sky Blues claiming a comfortable win on their return to action. The victory over Millwall ended a run of five games without a win for Mark Robins' side and helped put further distance between themselves and the bottom three. This is a far cry from the form that saw them make it to the playoff final last season.

Plymouth are relishing their return to the Championship and also claimed a win of their own over the weekend. It is on their travels that Steven Schumacher's side have struggled, as they are yet to win a game on the road after eight attempts.

Coventry have tended to draw games at home and there is little to separate the two sides in the table. However, we are backing the hosts to build on their weekend victory with a first win at home in four games.

Prediction: Coventry City 2-1 Plymouth
