Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Coventry City & Birmingham City face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the FA Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Championship game only four days ago. That game was also an away game, at Middlesbrough. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
