When Coventry City hosts the Championship team in the FA Cup quarterfinal on Saturday, Paul Merson is adamant that the team would make Premier League Wolves “pay” if they exhibit any symptoms of complacency.
But it should come as no surprise that the former England and Arsenal player is rooting for Wanderers to easily defeat the Sky Blues and advance to the competition’s final four at Wembley.
His predictions for the big FA Cup weekend on sportskeeda.com stated, “This is a good game and a Midlands derby.” “Wolves has home advantage, so I have to pick them, but it’s crucial that they play with the proper mindset. Coventry, being a respectable team, will make them pay if they believe, as they should, that “we are just up against a Championship team, so we can win it.”
That being stated, Coventry’s primary goal for the upcoming season will be to return to the Premier League. They hope to return to Wembley for the Championship play-offs, where they were present the previous season.
However, for Wolves, this is a huge football match, he continued. Their goal is to win this game, and it would be an incredible accomplishment if they could go to the semifinals.
“The manager Gary O’Neil is exceptional. It takes a unique achievement for him to enter the club right now and perform as he has. He won’t be far from landing an even better job, in my opinion.
Wolves 1-3 Coventry is the prediction.
