Match preview

Coventry produced by far their worst performance of the season when losing 5-0 at Luton on Wednesday but they have a 100 per cent record at the Ricoh Arena and can play their part in an entertaining clash with Fulham.

Mark Robins' Sky Blues have looked at ease in front of their home fans.

Every league attendance at the Ricoh Arena this season has been in excess of 16,000 and another large crowd could spur on a decent Coventry side, who are 11 points better off than at the same stage of last season.

Robins has a lot to be pleased about and his front two – Viktor Gyokeres and Martyn Waghorn – can cause problems for the Cottagers, who have not kept a clean sheet in four games.

Attack could be the best form of defence for Fulham, who rose to third after Aleksandar Mitrovic bagged a hat-trick in Wednesday's 3-1 success at home to Swansea.

Key stat

Both teams have scored in each of Fulham's last four matches
