West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormThe West Bromwich Albion squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Burnley, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 31%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Burnley, who had 17 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Manager Carlos Corberán will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. They are proving tough to beat at home with their recent run of 5 clean sheets.
They've had a good run of form at home recently, with 5 straight wins in a row.
Coventry City, Recent FormCoventry City will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-0 home win against Huddersfield Town. In that game they had 44% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Huddersfield Town who had 6 attempts and 4 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Mark Robins will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 9 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. They are proving to be well organised on their travels, having kept 3 clean sheets in their last 6 games.
It's been mixed fortunes for Coventry away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
Viktor Gyökeres will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against West Bromwich Albion in this match, having already scored 3 goals in his last 6 away games for Coventry City.
The last league encounter between these two sides concluded with a 1-0 win for Coventry City.
West Brom have managed to keep a clean sheet against The Sky Blues in each of their previous 2 meetings at The Hawthorns. Coventry have struggled to break down The Baggies defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
There is only really one injury concern for the West Brom manager Carlos Corberán ahead of this clash, with Kyle Bartley (Foot) missing out, which gives Corberán a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Mark Robins has a number of injury concerns in his Coventry squad to contend with: Josh Eccles (Ankle), Matt Godden (Ankle), Marcel Hilßner (Knee), Seán Maguire (Leg), Kyle McFadzean (Calf), Callum O'Hare (Cruciate ligament) and Tyler Walker (Cruciate ligament)
