Coventry City have played 13 Championship games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-4-3 (wins-draws-losses). Coventry City have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

In their previous game, the manager Robins led his Coventry City to a defeat away at Burnley. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Coventry Building Society Arena. Defender Bidwell got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.3/10. Bidwell hit one key pass and won 2 of 3 duels.

Preceding that match, a home defeat in the FA Cup against Wrexham.

It should be considered that a peek at the 20 latest league fixtures shows that 15 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the teams scored a goal).

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Huddersfield Town are coming to town in three days.

The Coventry City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 13 matches. From these home matches, Coventry have conceded only 10 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Norwich City form and stats

The visitors are W6-D2-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Championship.

Norwich City play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-0 victory visiting Preston North End (placed 13th). That victory felt nice as this side had gone four league rounds without victory. As mentioned above, Norwich City was the only team on the pitch versus Preston North End in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. The attacker Pukki got a match rating of 9.02 in that game. Pukki scored two goals, served one assist, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times.

The game earlier was the FA Cup-battle against Blackburn Rovers, a home defeat (0-1).

Norwich have scored 17 goals on their travels this season, from 13 away games in the league.

Head 2 Head

Norwich City have pulled off a sequence of 7 consecutive matches without losing (5-2-0) when playing Coventry City.

This isn't the first time these two sides meet this campaign, as the statistics show this recent match: Norwich City - Coventry 3-0.
