GREAT COVENTRY

Coventry City, a team known for their fast and uncomplicated play, have vowed to try again. However, fate has handed the team led by former England player Mark Robins a special match in London, against a team from the "Big Six", Manchester United. This clash will take place in the competition most beloved by the English, as it provides opportunities for the more modest teams.

Watch out for this Sunderland player:

In this match, we will have to follow with a magnifying glass the English player and future promise of Sunderland; Jobe Bellingham. The midfielder and youth player Jobe Bellingham has earned a place in the starting eleven thanks to his great talent to command the field, find spaces in small areas and generate ball circulation on the side of Sunderland's black cats.

Watch out for this Cardiff player:

For this match, the player to watch will be David Turnbull. The Scottish midfielder is in charge of making the ball circulate for Cardiff to find spaces between the lines and generate a dangerous play that can tip the balance in favor of the Welsh team, also, his great speed and ball control make him an important piece in the starting eleven of his coach.

About the Stadium

The Cardiff City Stadium is a sports venue located in the city of Cardiff, Wales and is the current home of Cardiff City FC, a team that currently plays in the EFL Championship or second division of English soccer. It has the capacity to accommodate more than 26,000 spectators in its seats and was inaugurated in 2009 with a friendly match between Celtic and Cardiff, however, there is a curious fact and is that despite being a small enclosure, it is the second largest in Wales. The most important event it has hosted was the final of the UEFA Women's Champions League.

Same scenario

Sunderland is currently in twelfth place in the general table with 38 games played, which are divided into 14 wins, 6 draws and 18 defeats, also, in the statistics they have 48 goals for and 45 against, with a difference of +3. All this gives a total of 48 points for the team of the black cats that wants to continue climbing positions, however, they are in the same situation as their rival because to get into the play offs at the last minute they must win five in a row of 7 remaining games and hope that Norwich does not add any point in 5 rounds.

Very difficult to dream of the playoffs

Cardiff City is currently in eleventh place in the general table with 38 games played, with 16 wins, 5 draws and 17 defeats. In terms of statistics, Cardiff City averages 43 goals scored and 51 conceded, leaving them with a difference of -8. At the moment, they have 53 points that put them close to enter the top 10 of the Championship, however, it is very difficult to think of being able to get into the playoffs at the last minute for the promotion game since we are in the 39th matchday of 46, that is, there are 21 points left in dispute and the sixth place has 61 points so far, that is, they would need Norwich not to score points for four matchdays and Cardiff City to win four in a row.

The season comes to an end

The exciting adventure in the silver division of English soccer is already in its final stages and little by little the two teams chosen thanks to their great performance throughout the season to advance to the next category, the Premier League, are beginning to be glimpsed. Likewise, the places of the teams that will be present in the playoffs to reach Wembley and play the most important 90 minutes of the season in the promotion game to win the last ticket that will take a team to be part of the maximum circuit in England are already beginning to settle. Also, the drama of relegation is already beginning to be felt in the last places of the general table where stress, pressure and drama begin to take over the teams fighting for survival in the Championship.
