Despite the opening day success for Oxford United, we predict it might be a struggle for them away from home against Coventry City with the quality of the Sky Blues squad.
Mark Robins secured the signing of talented winger Ephron Mason-Clark, who is expected to contribute against Oxford United. Mason-Clark scored 14 goals for Peterborough United last season and averaged a goal per game last season, scoring once every 258 minutes.
The Over 2.5 market has landed in six of the previous eight meetings between the two teams, with the BTTS market also landing in the same fixtures. The last meeting between the two teams ended 6-2 last season to Coventry; however, only two goals had decided the four previous results.
For this reason, we are predicting Coventry City will beat Oxford United 2-1. Coventry City 2-1 Oxford United.
