Norwich City
- Norwich City (20th, 30 points) and Coventry City (1st, 58 points) are separated by a huge 28 points from 28 Championship games ahead of the Sky Blues’ visit to Carrow Road on Monday, but the Canaries have an excellent recent record against the league leaders in this fixture.
- Norwich have won just three of their 13 home Championship games this season, losing nine.
- Norwich have lost their last two home games, so haven’t yet made Carrow Road a fortress.
- Norwich are a compact side with plenty of discipline, but they tend to sit back and let the opposition dominate possession while trying to catch them off guard on the break.
Coventry City
- Coventry City’s 30 away Championship goals this season underline their potent away attack.
- Coventry have failed to win their last two away games, taking just one point from a possible six.
- Coventry love to play with tempo and attack with verticality, with wide overloads and coordinated pressing allowing them to control the game.
Head-to-Head
- The last Championship meeting between the sides finished in a 1-1 draw.
- Coventry City have failed to win in their last two Championship visits to Norwich.
- Norwich are undefeated in the last five meetings, winning three and drawing two.
