Coventry vs Wigan Athletic Prediction

Despite facing off-field issues, Coventry have rallied in recent weeks to propel themselves into mid-table from the bottom position. Manager Mark Robins deserves credit, with his ultra-tight defence playing a key role in team's upturn in fortunes.

Wigan, meanwhile, are on a poor run of form that has seen them go six league games without a win. That has left them floundering in the relegation zone.
