What would change our mind?
The developments we would react to before kick-off.
If Ipswich name a weakened XI
Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.
If Coventry score first
The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
