Coventry City – the shape of the team and its analysis: there is lack of strength and motivation for fights
“The Sky Blues” were unable to finally return to the Premier League a year ago, only because they lost to Luton in the play-off final, which went to a penalty shoot-out. This time, the resounding success was prevented by unsuccessfully executed penalty kicks again. Speaking about the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley, the underdog came back from a 0-3 score in the battle against Manchester United. Still, then it couldn’t beat Onana. At the same time, there was an unsuccessful period in the Championship both before and after the cup semi-finals, which is why the club was left without a chance of finishing in the top 6 ahead of schedule.
Ipswich Town – the shape of the team and its analysis: the alignments were spoiled in the spring
“The Tractor Boys” returned to the Championship only at the end of the previous season. And they became its main sensation, immediately gaining a foothold in the group of leaders. Still, bad times also happen. The next one began in April, with a defeat made by Norwich, after which points continued to be lost. As a result, Leicester reserved one of the passing places. Now the team needs to win the absentee race with Leeds for the second ticket.
