Our predicted score is Leeds United 1–0 Coventry City, the likeliest Leeds United win score (10%). Our expected goals are 1.9 for Leeds United and 1.0 for Coventry City, 2.9 in all. Both teams scoring is 54% and three or more goals is 55%.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is the player we expect to shoot most: 2.5 shots and 1.1 on target for Leeds United, if they start. For cards, Caleb Yirenkyi (Coventry City) has been booked once every 2 games in 2026/27, more often than anyone else here. On form, Leeds United have one win, three draws and two defeats from their last six games, and Coventry City have three wins, no draws and three defeats.
Of their last five meetings on our records, Leeds United and Coventry City have two wins each, with one draw. When they last met, it finished Coventry City 0–2 Leeds United, in Feb 2025. On shots, our forecast is 16.9 for Leeds United and 11.8 for Coventry City, with 5.3 and 3.7 on target, and corners at 6.0 to 3.6. So we expect Leeds United to do more of the shooting. Bawler's pick for this game is Leeds United or Draw, Leeds United Over 12.5 Shots and Dominic Calvert-Lewin 2+ Shots. Our model gives all three landing together a 47% chance, which makes the fair price 11/10 (2.15).
