The visiting Coventry City side should be favourites in this visit to Rochdale, as the away team holds a 24 point advantage from their 30 league games this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Rochdale form and stats

Rochdale have collected 16 points from their League One home games so far after 4-4-6.

No payout for Rochdale in their previous match, an away game at Sunderland that ended in defeat 0-3. Before that, Rochdale played out a draw 1-1 when visiting Doncaster Rovers.

The game against Sunderland was basically lost in the first half (0-3) and the second half was more of a formality.

Rochdale are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 14 games. 19 goals have been conceded.
