Coventry City form and stats
No payout for Coventry City in their previous match, an away game at Hull City that ended in defeat 2-3. The gifted forward Godden bettered all the other players in that game and got a match rating of 8.32 out of 10. Godden scored two goals.
Heartbreak before that as Coventry lost 2-3 at Millwall's place.This is expected to be a close game, with Coventry City perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

The attacking players of Preston North End have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 342 minutes. Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Preston North End goalkeeper Freddie Woodman is eager to challenge this, with his 582 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Cardiff City (placed 14th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 0-0.
