Coventry City and West Bromwich go head-to-head at The Coventry Building Society Arena this Saturday in the EFL Championship. The match will be broadcast live at 12:30 on Sky Sports Football.
Coventry City have won 34 points to date and are placed in 1st position. In their last game, Frank Lampard's team won 0-1 against Stoke City (EFL Championship 2025/26).
West Bromwich have picked up 21 points and currently lie in 14th position. Last time out, Ryan Mason's team triumphed 2-1 against Oxford United (EFL Championship 2025/26).
The last meeting between the two teams ended with Coventry City winning 2-0.
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.
