1st position in the League One table for Wycombe Wanderers so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 9th-placed Coventry City visits Madejski Stadium.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the League One. That game was an away game at Portsmouth, so at least Wycombe Wanderers are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
