There is a (very) slight difference.
"I wasn't sure you'd come" implies that I wasn't sure you actually wanted to come.
"I wasn't sure if you were coming." implies that there might have been some other reason you wouldn't have come - it doesn't suggest as strongly that you might not be coming because you didn't want to.
The difference is subtle and the meanings overlap a great deal.
