Coventry City form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Championship for Coventry City with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

There might be some fixture complaints from Coventry City as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 2-3 against Millwall. That loss was their first after three consecutive league games winning points. Leading 2-0 was not enough for Coventry City in their fight with Millwall last time out. Happy faces soon turned sour as mistakes flourished in what ended up a 2-3 loss. The attacker Godden got a match rating of 8.1 in that game. Godden scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and had 22 successful passes (of 26 total).
