Coventry City, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 home defeat by Blackpool will have left the Coventry City squad feeling a little deflated. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by Blackpool, who had 17 shots on goal with 4 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 5 goals and some valuable points in the process. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. With just 2 clean sheets in the last 6 matches at home, Mark Robins will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at Coventry Building Society Arena, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins.
Goalscorer Gustavo Hamer will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Coventry City.
Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormHaving secured a 1-0 away win against Hull City in their latest league match, Blackburn Rovers will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. They achieved 48% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 0 of which were on target.
Manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 10 goals. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 4 straight wins in a row.
On an individual basis, Ben Brereton Díaz will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Blackburn Rovers' last 6 league games.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Rovers will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 6 encounters with Coventry. Blackburn have a good attacking record away to The Sky Blues in the league, having scored a total of 7 goals in their last 3 visits, which gives an average of 2.33 goals per game.
It has been a share of the points the last 3 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, Coventry may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 3 matches undefeated against their opponents.
Coventry manager Mark Robins has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Fankaty Dabo (Muscle), Matt Godden (Ankle), Liam Kelly (Knee), Martyn Waghorn (Hamstring) and Tyler Walker (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Daniel Ayala (Muscle) and Sam Barnes (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jon Dahl Tomasson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
