PREVIEW | Coventry City vs West Bromwich - team news, lineups, predictions | OneFootball

Coventry City and West Bromwich to the Coventry Building Society Arena on Saturday in the Championship, with the match live on Sky Sports Football from 12:30.

Coventry sit top of the table with 34 points and head into the weekend after a solid 1-0 win away at Stoke before the international break. Frank Lampard’s side will be looking to push on as their promotion charge gathers pace.

West Brom, meanwhile, are 14th with 21 points but boosted by a much-needed 2-1 victory over Oxford United last time out. Ryan Mason’s team will be hoping that result sparks a consistent run.

Coventry won the most recent meeting between the sides 2-0.

The Fan Zone

Ross Cooper (SkyBlues Extra ): Not sure why, but this international break felt like it dragged even more than usual, but Championship action returns this weekend and we host West Bromwich Albion to the CBS Arena as we look to kick off this next block of game in the run up to Christmas with a win and stay top of the league.

It is going to be another huge crowd and another incredible atmosphere and I am hoping but at this point, more expecting us to come out of the blocks and pick up where we left off and control and dominate this game. Our home form has been extraordinary since Frank Lampard became Head Coach and we will need that to continue this season for us to seriously be thinking about automatic promotion. West Brom started the season well but it seems, at least from the outside, that they have stuttered a bit of late and they are the sort of side that we need to be putting to the sword, especially at home. It is important that we back up what was an incredible away win at Stoke before this break and so we need to be on it and take the game to the Baggies.

Haji Wright, Brandon Thomas Asante and Jay Dasilva have all been away on international duty so It'll be interesting to see what Frank does with selection. Jack Rudoni is back in training and who knows, maybe he could be on the bench, that would certainly be a boost if he was.

But I feel confident, if you can't now as a Cov fan, then when will you be able to? I think we will have a bit too much for West Brom and our superiority will be the difference.

Prediction: 2-0
