VIEW FROM THE BENCH

: "The big plus for us is that it looks like the game will be sold out. 4,000-plus of our own fans can make a huge difference. The players are in good spirits, they are nice and relaxed and looking forward to getting the job done, although we know Coventry will make it very difficult for us."Dean Saunders


 "Tony Mowbray, Coventry manager (pictured):We are where we are and we’ve got to prepare for a huge game. I have to try to make sure that we get the right team on the pitch on Sunday and everything else goes on the back burner."

 

  

WE’VE MET BEFORE?

This will be the sixth meeting between the two clubs. Reds have won both of the two home games, 2-0 in April 2013 and 3-2 in August 2014. Away from home Coventry won the first match between the clubs in November 2012 3-1. Both subsequent games finished 2-2 including last October's game at the Ricoh when Gwion Edwards and Izale McLeod scored for Reds.
