Coventry City form and stats

11-7-5 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Coventry City so far this season.

The Coventry City goalkeeper Ben Wilson is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 225 minutes without conceding a goal in the Championship.

Happy days for Coventry City in their previous game, a fixture away at Middlesbrough that ended with a 1-0 victory. McNally was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.05 out of 10. The defender McNally won 7 of 10 duels.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Middlesbrough.

The Coventry fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 30 in 23 matches. 24 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Luton Town form and stats

As the visiting team matches, Luton Town, who have the fewest conceded goals (18) away in Championship, have produced an overall stat of 11-8-4 so far.

Luton Town go into this game after a win, the home game against Sunderland that ended 2-0. Those three points felt nice as this side had gone three league matches without winning. Defender Lockyer was the best team player with a rating of 8.33. Lockyer scored one goal, hit one key pass and won 5 of 11 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Sunderland's place.

Few goals the story here? 18 of this club's last 22 league rounds have had two or less goals.

Luton are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 26 away goals from 23 games (in the league). It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. It's not easy to score on Luton Town as they have only conceded 18 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

Luton Town have avoided a loss in the last 9 matches (4-5-0) against Coventry City.

The two combatants have battled earlier this season: Coventry - Luton Town 1-1. The match official brandished his red card when these teams last met, and the culprit was Wilson-Esbrand (Coventry City).
