Coventry City host Blackburn Rovers at the Coventry Building Society Arena on Tuesday in the Championship. The hosts have endured a disappointing start to their season, falling behind in the race for promotion, as they are 21st in the table just five points.
They lost 3-0 to Leeds United on Saturday and could have no complaints about the result after managing just one shot on target.
Blackburn, meanwhile, have begun the season brightly, making an early push for the promotion playoffs. They picked up a comfortable 2-0 win over 10-man Queens Park Rangers in their last match. Lewis Travis and Danny Batth got on the scoresheet in the second half to secure a seventh win for the Riversiders in eight home games against QPR.
The visitors are second in the league table with 15 points from seven matches. They are just one point behind leaders West Bromwich Albion and could leapfrog them with a win.
