National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Birmingham City or Coventry City that keep their silverware dream alive.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Birmingham City form and stats

Last season their FA Cup adventure ended in the 3rd round.

Overall Championship stats at home this season for Birmingham City are 6-3-6 (wins-draw-losses).

A nice win for Birmingham City last time playing, versus Nottingham Forest. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with Kristian Pedersen and Scott Hogan scoring for the victors. A 0-0 draw away in the FA Cup before that, with Coventry City the opponent.

Birmingham City are traveling soon after this match as the Championship match at Bristol City awaits in three days.

The Birmingham City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 15 matches. 22 goals have been conceded.

Coventry City form and stats

Last season their FA Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.

4 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Coventry City playing as the away team in the League One this season. When we have look at the FA Cup statistics, we find 3W-3D-0L. This is both home and away.

It's the second away game in a row for Coventry City, but there's smiles all around after the 2-1 victory versus Bristol Rovers in the League One last time out. Before that, Coventry City travelled to Fleetwood Town and returned home with a draw after the League One game finished 0-0.

A new game in only four days for Coventry City, the League One home match versus Bolton Wanderers. Busy days.

Coventry City are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 21 times in 14 away games so far. 18 goals have been conceded by Coventry City in these games.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Coventry City - Birmingham City 0-0 earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last nine meetings): Birmingham City won four games, two matches ended with a draw and Coventry City has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / six
