Bitesize Prediction: Coventry City vs Charlton Athletic – 29/11/25

Competition: Championship

Market: Coventry City win

Odds: 1/2 @ BetUS

Simply looking to extend their sensational buffer at the top of the Championship table, Coventry will welcome Charlton to the Midlands on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, while Coventry might have suffered play-off heartbreak last season, Frank Lampard’s high-flying squad have shattered a string of long-standing records this time around. Embarking on what has become a famous fairytale in the Midlands, the Sky Blues are riding a major wave of momentum. Last seen earlier in the week securing a sensational 4-2 victory away at fellow promotion dreamers Middlesbrough, the former Everton boss finds his squad holding a remarkable 10-point buffer at the top of the Championship standings. Marking their return from November’s International break with a frantic 3-2 win against local rivals West Brom, Coventry have collected 40 points from their first 17 Championship appearances. It should also be highlighted, Saturday’s hosts have gained a fearsome reputation for their free-scoring performances in the final third. Getting November underway with a routine 3-1 victory against Sheffield United, Lampard’s record-breakers have already notched a staggering 47 goals so far this season.

As for the visitors, while Charlton might have opened November in the midst of a rugged run of form, it is fair to say that Nathan Jones’ men have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Only making their Championship return this season, the Addicks simply have their sights set on maintaining their second-tier status this time around. Last seen earlier in the week getting completely blown away against Stoke as they slumped to a 3-0 defeat, the former Southampton boss couldn’t have asked for a tougher challenge here. Marking their return from November’s international break with a woeful 5-1 drumming at home against the Saints, Charlton have now lost all of their previous three consecutive Championship appearances by an aggregate score of 9-1. Showing some worrying defensive issues on either side of November’s fortnight interval, it should also be highlighted that Saturday’s guests have claimed just a sole victory from any of their last six straight outings.
