The Toffees to take on Championship side Coventry City FC

Coventry City endured a season marred by mediocrity and secured a ninth-place finish in the Championship points table last season. Their pre-season campaign has seen mixed results so far. After holding Getafe to a stalemate in their opening fixture, they went on to achieve a convincing victory against Stevenage. In their previous game, they went down 2-0 to Darmstadt in Nieder-Ramstädter, who handed them their first defeat of the pre-season campaign.

On the other side, Everton’s season was one to overlook, as they barely sidestepped relegation, finishing sixth from the end of the table. The Toffees began their pre-season campaign with an entertaining 3-3 draw against Sligo Rovers. In their previous fixture, Salford City got the better of Everton by beating them 2-1. The Black Watch are winless so far in their pre-season campaign and will be keen to secure their first victory when they lock horns with Coventry City FC.

The full prowess of both teams remains untapped so far. We are expecting a neck-to-neck fight when both these sides, hungry for a win, face each other in their upcoming fixture.
