Coventry finished 16th in the Championship last season on their return to this level of football, and it would be fair to say that they were not particularly mentioned as possible promotion candidates this term.

However, a fine start to the 2021-22 campaign has seen the Sky Blues collect 27 points from their opening 15 matches to sit fourth in the table, one point behind third-placed West Bromwich Albion.

Only Fulham (10) and Bournemouth (11) have won more Championship matches than Coventry (eight) this season, and the hosts will enter this game off the back of a 1-0 success at Hull City, with Matt Godden's first-half effort proving to be the difference between the two sides.



译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

考文垂在上个赛季的英冠联赛中只获得了第16名，而在这个赛季中，他们并没有被特别提到晋级的可能性。

然而，在21-22赛季的良好开局下，天空蓝军在开始的15场比赛中得到27分，排名第四，落后第三名西布朗维奇一分。

本赛季，只有富勒姆(10场)和伯恩茅斯(11场)比考文垂(8场)赢得更多的冠军，而主队将在1-0战胜赫尔城(Hull City)后迎来这场比赛，马特·戈登(Matt Godden)的上半场表现证明了两队之间的差异。
